    “Of the countries studied, Spain, Italy and Portugal are the countries of the European Union where the long-term unemployment affects more negatively to salary, once the individual returns to work,” explains to SINC Carlos García Serrano, a researcher University of Alcalá (UAH) and one of the authors.

    The paper analyzes the labor mobility and “losses relative” of wages when the individual passes the idle-state workers not actively seeking work or have use for it-or unemployment in Spain, Italy, Portugal, United Kingdom, France and Germany for seven consecutive years (1995-2001), from data collected in the Panel Survey Household Panel (ECHP).

    “We wanted to know the effect on wages in unemployment and inactivity, and see if the selected countries were grouped according to level of impact on remuneration. To this end, we took into account the different labor market institutions and social protection systems that exist in each country, “said Garcia Serrano.

    The results, published in Manchester School, show that the countries studied are divided into three groups. The first one is formed by Germany and France, countries representative “of protective institutions, ie, following a more proactive model of social security or to the job.

    For its part, Spain, Italy and Portugal, have a similar preventive policy but “weaker” and differences in the system of collective bargaining and active labor market policies work. And finally, the United Kingdom has the most flexible and lowest unemployment protection.

    “We expected that the impact of inactivity and unemployment was higher in countries like France and Germany, but it was not. Only in the case of inaction, France, Germany and Portugal are at the forefront of negative impact on wages in the later work, “says the researcher.

    A temporary phenomenon

    But not all negative data: periods of relative wage losses after unemployment are not permanent. “In workers who have moved from job due to a recent period of unemployment, wage figures are 4.5% lower in Spain, Italy 5.6% and 7% in Portugal compared to those have remained in occupation, but his recovery is quick as they disappear after one year, “he stresses.

    Younger workers have the highest wage increases in every country (especially if they move voluntarily). However, individuals between 31 and 45 years are most affected by periods of unemployment on wages later and they are more permanent effects.
