The analysis is based on a census of Portuguese manufacturing companies, covering more than 40,000 firms between 2006 and 2011. The results suggest that a number of these variables matter for firm performance, including the number of procedures required to start a business, a more extensive coverage of collective wage bargaining agreements, the tax burden, tax compliance costs and the number of procedures required to enforce a contract.PPN: PPN: 843548568Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-13-SOC | ZDB-13-SOC-ebookNo physical items for this record
