Inadequacy of exceptional employment protection measures in the context of COVID-19

Since the state of emergency came into effect in Portugal, the Government has approved exceptional measures aimed at protecting employment, but a number of situations have arisen that give rise to interpretations against the law, as well as measures that are inconsistent with their intended objectives.

Filipe Lamelas and Ana Alves da Silva, researchers at CoLABOR, are the authors of this third edition of "Policies in Analysis," which examines the inadequacy, omission, or problems in the legislation that creates and implements the measures in force in Portugal.
