Over one million temporary workers lost their jobs at the beginning of the pandemic, as companies preferred not to include them in short-time work schemes (Consequences of the COVID-19 Pandemic)

Abstract

"Spain used a short-time work scheme called “Expediente Temporal de Regulación de Empleo” during the Covid-19 crisis. In this interview, Marcel Jansen, Associate Professor of Economics at the Autonomous University of Madrid (UAM), will explain how it worked, how it changed during the pandemic, and what lessons can be learned from the Spanish experience."
