The negotiation of Collective Agreements gains speed during the first semester of 2015

Unemployment is a serious issue in our country: it poses a complex challenge for the economic and political world, in general, and social agents, in particular.

From a business point of view, necessary reforms for the modernization of the labour market need to achieve quality employment. At the same time, there is a need of fiscal mechanisms that promote employment in all activities in general, and especially in recently created companies. Self-employed workers need special attention.
