Phased implementation may be one strategy that can be employed, along with managing shortterm adjustment costs and building capabilities to exploit opportunities generated through trade. Of the roughly 3 billion people worldwide that have jobs, some 1.65 billion have regular wages or salaries, while another 1.4 billion work in farming, small household enterprises or as casual or seasonal day labor. The latter make up the majority of workers in the poorest countries, although there is little data on employment in many of the poorest countries, complicating analysis of their situation. The creation of jobs for those who want to work is critical, and as discussed in this report trade can drive the economic growth that delivers jobs along with the reallocation of people to better jobs, and improving aspects of the work people do.
