This requires the close integration of the different active and passive labour-market policies, including unemployment insurance. A key dimension is that of increasing productivity, both by reassigning workers from one sector to another (structural change), and by making improvements within sectors. This requirement is due to the possible effect of high employment insecurity on confidence in political institutions, as well as the short- and long-term impact on the well-being of households, especially those with low income levels (ECLAC, 2010a: page 51). This also means not reversing course in respect of the labour advances achieved in the recent period.
