Using an unbalanced panel of 167 countries over the period 1991 - 2009, the results suggest that structural policies aimed at increasing labor and product market flexibility and reducing government size have a significant and positive impact on employment elasticities. In addition, the results also suggest that in order to maximize the positive impact on the responsiveness of employment to economic activity, st 410 0$aIMF Working Papers 606 $aJob creation 606 $aFull employment policies 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aJob creation. 615 0$aFull employment policies. 700 $aCrivelli$b Ernesto$0926474 701 $aFurceri$b Davide$0963574 701 $aToujas-Bernate$b Joe?l$0963575 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461961803321 996 $aCan policies affect employment intensity of growth$92184816 997 $aUNINA
