Abstract

[fre] Cet article présente une revue de la littérature consacrée à l'étude des effets de la protection de l'emploi, relative notamment au licenciement individuel, sur le comportement des agents économiques impliqués dans la relation de travail. Ces analyses montrent que les règles juridiques encadrant la rupture de cette relation ne sont pas neutres. En effet, elles influencent non seulement le comportement des protagonistes lors de cette éventuelle rupture (que ce soit dans le choix du mode de séparation ou dans la négociation des indemnités de licenciement qui en découle) mais également la relation de travail (notamment en termes d'incitations à l'investissement spécifique). A cet égard, toute politique législative devrait tenir compte de cette capacité réactive des agents économiques afin de structurer efficacement les règles juridiques relatives au licenciement individuel. [eng] Individual Dismissal and Incentives . This article presents a survey of the literature which analyses the effects of the Employment Protection Legislation, especially concerning the individual dismissal, on the behavior of economic agents involved in a labor relationship. These analyses show that the legal rules applying to the breach of such a relationship are not neutral. Indeed, they influence not only the behavior of parties at the time of the breach (e.g. concerning the choice of the type of dismissal or the bargaining over the severance pay) but also during the work relationship (especially in terms of specific investments incentives). In this respect, any legislative policy should take into account this reactive tendency of economic actors in order to make legal rules related to dismissal more efficient.
