The analysis focuses on the effect of the new law on formal employment (jobs with contracts) in the private non-agricultural regular waged sector. The findings suggest that the new law has had a positive impact on those who were employed in 1998 in the private non-agricultural sector and in the private non-agricultural waged sector. However, the effect was not significant for new entrants to the labor market looking for first jobs.
