Employment Situation in Latin America and the Caribbean: Universal social protection in labour markets with high levels of informality

The Employment Situation in Latin America and the Caribbean is a twice-yearly report prepared jointly by the Economic Development Division of the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) and the Office for the Southern Cone of Latin America of the International Labour Organization (ILO).

In 2015 the labour market in Latin America and the Caribbean will feel the impacts of still-lacklustre economic growth in the region, giving rise to concerns that the progress made in the past few years could come to a halt or even be reversed.
