Abstract

[fre] Le contrat nouvelles embauches: quels effets sur les flux d'embauches et de licenciements? . Cet article présente une maquette du marché du travail à la Mortensen et Pissarides [ 1994] où coexistent trois types d'emplois: des emplois à durée indéterminée (CDI), des emplois à durée déterminée (CDD) et des emplois de type contrat nouvelle embauche (CNE), réservés aux petites entreprises. Le salaire minimum est supposé s'appliquer à tous les emplois. Les entreprises décident d'un investissement en capital humain différencié par type de contrat qui vient accroître la productivité de l'emploi. Les résultats du modèle montrent que l'introduction du CNE induit une baisse du chômage, plus élevée lorsque l'on ne tient pas compte de l'investissement en capital humain. Lorsque les entreprises décident d'investir en capital humain, la baisse du chômage s'accroît avec l'investissement associé au CNE. Le recours au CNE conduit à une hausse des créations et des destructions d'emplois, la rotation des emplois étant plus importante lorsqu'il se substitue au CDI qu'au CDD. L'allongement de la durée de la période de consolidation entraîne également une réduction du taux de chômage. L'extension du CNE à toutes les entreprises ne conduit pas à une hausse exactement proportionnelle de l'emploi. [eng] What are the effects of the «Contrat Nouvelles Embauches» on hiring and firing flows? . This paper presents a labour market model based on Mortensen and Pissarides [ 1994] where there are three kinds of jobs: stable jobs, fixed-term jobs and jobs with CNE contracts which only apply to small firms. All jobs are paid the minimum wage. Firms decide to invest in human capital and this investment differs with the type of contract. This investment raises the job's productivity. The model demonstrates that the introduction of the CNE results in a reduction of the unemployment rate, but that this decrease is more pronounced when human capital investment is not taken into account. The higher the human capital investment under a CNE contract, the lower the unemployment rate. The CNE contract influences the volatility of hiring and firing flows; job turnover is higher when firms substitute CNE contracts for CDI contracts rather than substituting them for CDD contracts. This model supports the view that the lengthening of the duration of the trial period (" consolidation period") reduces the unemployment rate. When CNE applies to all firms whatever their size, employment rises but not exactly proportionnally.
