B-READY: Arbeit Säule 1: Qualität der Arbeitsbestimmungen

B-READY focuses on ten topics that are organized following the life cycle of the firm and its participation in the market while opening, operating (or expanding), and closing (or reorganizing) a business. The Labor topic measures good practices in employment regulations and public services from the perspective of both enterprises and employees across three different dimensions, or pillars. The first pillar assesses the quality of labor regulations pertaining to workers' conditions and employment restrictions and costs, covering de jure features of the regulatory framework that are necessary for the functioning of the labor market and to provide employers and employees with their obligations and relevant safeguards.
