Social dumping

Summary/Abstract: The paper analyses social dumping. For the last couple of years this term has been increasingly used in public discourse in the context of possible competitive advantage within EU due to low wages and low levels of social security of certain groups of workers. This paper analyses the main characteristics, causes, classification and possible consequences of social dumping. The analysis is based on the existing empirical findings and assumptions of many authors and thus attempts to create a general understanding of social dumping. A single and generally accepted definition of social dumping does not exist, nor is there any prospect of defining such a complex term. In accordance with this and since it is clear that exact measurement of social dumping is not possible, this paper aims to summarize the current knowledge and scientific findings on social dumping and, based on this, to propose a general framework for monitoring the workforce for which is more likely to work in conditions of social dumping.
