Abstract

Work integration social enterprises are at a competitive disadvantage in the market due to their idiosyncratic nature. Social clauses and protected markets may provide a way of balancing this disadvantage. This article analyses the measures put in place by the Authorities to promote social and work integration processes. However, this analysis refers only to the measures that the Authorities can adopt in their role as a client or market for products or services, and to measures that are aimed particularly at work integration social enterprises: social clauses and protected markets. Both of these measures are rescaled into a single dimension labelled social clauses, quantifying their restrictive impact in the light of the problem of whether or not said clauses are used.
