"Our calculations show that a more flexible labour legislationcould see the creation of 90,000 new jobs in the short run. Theshare of legally-employed people - 4.2 million compared with the 10million people making up the economically active population is toosmall," said Shachar Shaine, chairman of the labour legislationworking group within FIC.
