Summary indicators of Employment protection Legislation (EPL) in Latin America and the Caribbean
mydata.iadb.org | Last Updated 2024-02-15T21:36:21.000ZThe OECD/IDB indicators of employment protection legislation measure the procedures and costs involved in dismissing individuals or groups of workers and the procedures involved in hiring workers on fixed-term or temporary work agency contracts. The indicators have been compiled using IDB and OECD own reading of statutory laws, collective bargaining agreements and case law. The OECD Secretariat and the IDB equally share the responsibility of the interpretation of LAC countries’ statutory laws, collective bargaining agreements and case law. This data base constitutes the first systematic approach to review and compare employment protection regulations in LAC, in a way that is also comparable with countries around the world. <br><br><b>Click here to access the data: https://mydata.iadb.org/d/fzc8-jx54</b></br></br>

Public Management Evaluation Tool
mydata.iadb.org | Last Updated 2024-02-15T21:17:54.000ZThe Public Management Evaluation Tool (PET) evaluates five “pillars” of the public policies' management cycle that are considered important for the implementation of Management for Development Results (MfDR): (i) results-based planning, (ii) results-based budgeting, (iii) public financial management (including auditing and procurement), (iv) program and project management (including the public investment system), and (v) monitoring and evaluation of public management. These pillars are broken down into components that track the maturity of institutional systems. The components are in turn composed of indicators and minimum requirements that these systems must have in an MfDR environment. All of these measures (minimum requirements, indicators, components, and pillars) are scored on a scale from 0 to 5, where a 5 indicates an ideal institutional situation. <br><br><b>Click here to access the data: https://mydata.iadb.org/idb/dataset/c89t-dh9r</b></br></br>

More than Revenue: Taxation as a Development Tool - DIA 2013
mydata.iadb.org | Last Updated 2024-02-15T20:27:51.000ZTaxation in Latin America is largely viewed as a means of generating income to keep the government in business. In recent years, progress has been made towards increasing total revenue, but most countries in the region still lag well behind other countries with similar levels of development. More importantly, Latin America policymakers still largely ignore the potential of taxation to contribute to other important development goals. Governments have repeatedly missed the chance to influence consumption and production patterns by using taxes to effect relative price changes. More than Revenue aims to provide an up-to-date overview of the current state of taxation in the Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) region, its main reform needs, and possible reform strategies that take into account the likely economic, institutional, and political constraints on the reform process. <br><br><b>Click here to access the data: https://mydata.iadb.org/d/edmz-xf2j </b></br></br>
