The Automatic Nature of Dismissals in Spain: Dismissal-at-Will under Civil Law

Miguel Malo, Luis Toharia

Research output: Working paperAcademic

Abstract

In this article, we explain that, in Spain, a relatively minor reform in unemployment benefits regulation has introduced a system to dismiss at will. Therefore, the fairness of the dismissal is not important in practice, although the whole legal system requiring a fair cause for dismissals remains. We present different empirical evidence supporting such statement.
