Per Skedinger, Research Fellow and Associate Professor of Economics, Research Institute of Industrial Economics (IFN), Sweden

Employment protection legislation is one of the most controversial issues in the labour market. In this insightful book, Per Skedinger provides an overview of the design, evolution and research on the effects of employment protection legislation around the world.

‘Since the academic and public debate on EPL appears to be far from over, Employment Protection Legislation is an excellent survey and can be beneficial to anyone interested in the field, as the author manages to present the material in an accessible and unbiased manner. . . both academics and policymakers can learn a lot from the vast range of studies reviewed in this book, particularly from the empirical evidence and suggested routes for new research.’
– Anil Duman, Work, Employment and Society

‘In this book, Per Skedinger gives an excellent and balanced survey and evaluation of both the theoretical prediction and the empirical research about the consequences of legislated employment protection.’
