    Spain |The labour market reform changes the sectoral distribution of contracts by duration

    Summary

    The labour market reform changes the sectoral distribution of contracts by duration: those sectors with a greater weight in shorter duration contracts, such as Accommodation and food service activities and Agriculture, forestry and fishing, lose importance and the rest of the activities gain it.

    Key points

    • Key points:
    • The sectors that continue to use short-term contracts (7 days or less) are the same in 2022 as in 2019.
    • In the following duration brackets penalised by the labour market reform (between 7 and 15 days and between 15 days and one month), the results are somewhat more heterogeneous.
    • The sectors associated with the Public Sector are the ones that most accentuate their share of long-term temporary contracts (more than six months).
    • The sectoral distribution of open-ended temporary contracts is similar in the two years considered.
    • Accommodation and food service activities accounts for 22% of permanent contracts signed in 2022 compared with 19% in 2019.
