Why Labor Market Efficiency Matters

Efficient Human Resources are not less than capital for any sector of the economy. If this capital is allocated properly with respect to the natural and professional abilities of employees, there is definitely more outcome. A few labor markets also move the employees from the sectors of less outcome to the area of more outcome. Thus, they are flexible because of their objectives. It assists the economy in reacting to external effects. On the contrary, some economies formulate such type of protection policies for the employees that minimize this efficiency of the labor market.The labor markets that are flexible tend to efficiently reallocate the resources as per the emerging requirements. With the gradual improvement of technology, the companies which are not able to adopt the technology changes will have to minimize the number of employees. If the cost of dismissing employees is so high because of local legislation, the traders will want to invest more in the sectors where the technology move is in a slow process. So, the countries of the flexible market will be able to adopt the technological moves in a better way. This is because they can utilize the advanced resources in other areas and there will be no cost of dismissal. The employees should avail themselves of the unemployment insurance. They will better be able to protect themselves from this reallocation in the flexible markets. They are less tensed. They develop more patience when they find employment opportunities that are in accord with their expertise. Hence, they become more productive. They can search for job offers with more wages.
