Free movement of workers: Effects on local labor markets and regions of origin

FREEMOV
This project analyzes the consequences of the free movement of people on the labor market and the regions of origin, particularly due to the constant increase in mobility. Despite the opening of borders, institutional and wage disparities between European countries can hinder the balancing of labor markets sought by the European Union. The projects focuses on the impacts of this mobility on the origin labor market, examining the distribution of benefits among workers, especially wage inequalities between genders, and exploring indicators of business performance. The effects on continuing education and competitiviness vary by sector. A thorough understanding of the mechanisms operating in this context of enhanced competition is crucial for developping effective economic policies.
