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, structural policies have to be complemented with macroeconomic policies aimed at increasing macroeconomic stability. 410 0$aIMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;$vNo. 2012/218 606 $aJob creation 606 $aFull employment policies 606 $aFinance: General$2imf 606 $aLabor$2imf 606 $aMacroeconomics$2imf 606 $aMacroeconomics: Consumption, Saving, Production, Employment and Investment: Other$2imf 606 $aMobility, Unemployment, and Vacancies: General$2imf 606 $aBusiness Fluctuations$2imf 606 $aCycles$2imf 606 $aEmployment$2imf 606 $aUnemployment$2imf 606 $aWages$2imf 606 $aIntergenerational Income Distribution$2imf 606 $aAggregate Human Capital$2imf 606 $aAggregate Labor Productivity$2imf 606 $aLabor Economics Policies$2imf 606 $aGeneral Financial Markets: General (includes Measurement and Data)$2imf 606 $aDemand and Supply of Labor: General$2imf 606 $aInstitutions and the Macroeconomy$2imf 606 $aLabour$2imf 606 $aincome economics$2imf 606 $aFinance$2imf 606 $aLabor market policy$2imf 606 $aCommodity markets$2imf 606 $aLabor markets$2imf 606 $aStructural policies$2imf 606 $aFinancial markets$2imf 606 $aMacrostructural analysis$2imf 606 $aEconomic theory$2imf 606 $aManpower policy$2imf 606 $aCommodity exchanges$2imf 606 $aLabor market$2imf 607 $aNew Zealand$2imf 615 0$aJob creation. 615 0$aFull employment policies. 615 7$aFinance: General 615 7$aLabor 615 7$aMacroeconomics 615 7$aMacroeconomics: Consumption, Saving, Production, Employment and Investment: Other 615 7$aMobility, Unemployment, and Vacancies: General 615 7$aBusiness Fluctuations 615 7$aCycles 615 7$aEmployment 615 7$aUnemployment 615 7$aWages 615 7$aIntergenerational Income Distribution 615 7$aAggregate Human Capital 615 7$aAggregate Labor Productivity 615 7$aLabor Economics Policies 615 7$aGeneral Financial Markets: General (includes Measurement and Data) 615 7$aDemand and Supply of Labor: General 615 7$aInstitutions and the Macroeconomy 615 7$aLabour 615 7$aincome economics 615 7$aFinance 615 7$aLabor market policy 615 7$aCommodity markets 615 7$aLabor markets 615 7$aStructural policies 615 7$aFinancial markets 615 7$aMacrostructural analysis 615 7$aEconomic theory 615 7$aManpower policy 615 7$aCommodity exchanges 615 7$aLabor market 700 $aFurceri$b Davide$01157580 701 $aCrivelli$b Ernesto$01481156 701 $aToujas-Bernate$b Joël$01578668 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786486403321 996 $aCan Policies Affect Employment Intensity of Growth?
