Policies on the Informal Labor Market Regarding Protection of Workers and Entrepreneurs

Summary/Abstract: At this moment, the segmentation of the labor market into formal and informal is well known and also are known the main features specific to the formal/informal duality of the labor market, namely: on the one hand, security and rigidity in the case of formal labor market, and on the other hand the flexibility and lack of social protection in the case of the informal labor market. In the light of these features, which characterize the formal/informal duality of labor market, in this paper we aim to present the main policies applied on the informal labor market, both in terms of workers and of entrepreneurs. Thus, in this paper we will address the following categories of policies addressed to informal activities: employment policies regarding the transition from informal to formal; employment policies regarding the protection of informal workers/entrepreneurs; policies regarding increasing productivity in the informal sector and providing better jobs.
