The article describes how employment protection legislation and collective bargaining can be used to improve labour market adaptability. A rather detailed account is given of how, in Sweden, rules on dismissals for economic reasons and sectoral collective bargaining have been used to create institutions, the employment security councils, which offer redundant workers assistance in the transition to new jobs, in exchange for increased employer influence over layoffs. The potential exportability of these institutions is analysed as well as the practical use of comparative law in policy making.

L’articolo descrive il modo in cui la legislazione lavoristica e la contrattazione collettiva possono essere utilizzate per migliorare l’adattabilità del mercato del lavoro. Si offre un dettagliato resoconto su come, in Svezia, le norme in materia di licenziamenti per ragioni economiche e la contrattazione collettiva di settore siano state utilizzate per creare gli employment security councils, che offrono assistenza ai lavoratori nella transizione da un posto di lavoro all’altro in cambio di un aumento del potere datoriale in materia di licenziamenti. Vengono, inoltre, affrontate le questioni della potenziale esportabilità degli employment security councils e dell’utilizzo pratico del diritto comparato nelle operazioni di policy making.
