Resumen

Este trabajo evalúa la influencia de las variables macroeconómicas e institucionales en la tasa de desempleo de 14 países de la Unión Europea. Se recurre a un modelo de datos de panel para el período 1985-2011. El mismo permite concluir sobre qué variables macroeconómicas e institucionales puede resultar más adecuado actuar para mejorar la respuesta del mercado de trabajo a los problemas económicos. Del análisis se concluye que la protección excesiva a los trabajadores, el salario mínimo interprofesional, la centralización en la negociación salarial y las elevadas cotizaciones empresariales a la Seguridad Social, así como la escasa competencia en el mercado de productos, pueden explicar, en parte, las mayores tasas de desempleo que presentan algunos países de la Unión Europea.
