The primary cause of poor labor market outcomes in Ukraine is the small size of the "new" private sector, consisting of small firms. This, in turn, is due to the poor investment climate caused by high risks, costs, and barriers associated with doing business in the Ukraine. Accordingly the key to improving labor market outcomes is to remove the main impediments to entry and growth, such as policy uncertainty, corruption, red tape, inefficient regulations, and poor access to finance. In the longer term, labor market institutions need to be reformed to create an adaptable labor market that supports job creation and growth in productivity. 2012-06-19T19:21:31Z 2012-06-19T19:21:31Z 2005-11 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2005/11/6622598/ukraine-jobs-study-fostering-productivity-job-creation-vol-2-2-technical-chapters http://hdl.handle.net/10986/8464 English en_US CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work :: Risk and Vulnerability Assessment Economic & Sector Work Europe and Central Asia Europe Commonwealth of Independent States Eastern Europe Ukraine |
