Flexibility and security: an asymmetrical relationship?

the precarious workers to denounce their employers, encourage a significant number of compa-
nies and organisations, even large ones, to systematically use the violation of legislation as a way of

Active labour market policies

As we have seen in section 3.2. (Table 3), Greece has the least developed active labour market
policies in the EU-15, with Spain doing better than all the other Southern European countries, whilst
Denmark is the EU champion in both active and passive labour market spending and the Netherlands
rank at the 2nd position regarding active measures and total expenditure. Overall, total public expendi-
ture on labour market policies in Denmark is twice as big as in Spain and more than 7 times as big as
in Greece, pointing to one of the most consequential underlying factors for the huge differences in
the enforcement of the flexicurity agenda amongst these countries.
