20.500.12556/RUP-1435 Labour taxation and its impact on employment growth The paper aims to assess the characteristics of labour taxation for five different groups of workers and labour market performance (in terms of employment and unemployment rate) in the EU and to examine whether tax wedge affects employment growth in the EU. The descriptive empirical estimates show that the level of labour taxation varies greatly across EU Member States, by which the tax wedge tends to be higher among New Member States (excluding Cyprus and Malta). Furthermore, the panel regression analyses confirm statistically significant negative relationship between tax wedge and employment growth in the EU as a whole. Therefore, the empirical analysis suggests that the EU-27 should continue with the trend of reducing tax wedge, as this would have favourable effects on labour market performance, especially among New Member States. labour taxation employment growth labour market economic policy European Union trg dela obdavčitev dela rast zaposlenosti ekonomska politika Evropska unija true true false Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Neznano 2013-10-15 12:05:57 2013-10-15 12:05:57 2024-03-01 12:00:53 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2012 0 0 Sistemske zahteve: Adobe Reader str. 301-318, 321 no. 3 Vol. 10 Fall 2012 0000-00-00 NiDoloceno NiDoloceno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 331.5:336.22 1854-6935 4588247 RAZ_Dolenc_Primoz_i2012.pdf RAZ_Dolenc_Primoz_i2012.pdf 1 A75AF30BA09F30ABC2DE8F93F21FD11B ada8107932df2a2e25985fd5c632abb1600fb185a4bd71de1a92ec06698508ac 71939d9b-c3d6-11ed-b5df-005056bf369b https://repozitorij.upr.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=25742 Založba Univerze na Primorskem 0 0 0
