Flexicurity is the fusion of two words – flexibility and security – into a new one. Our opinion it cannot overcome the oxymoron that’s in the word. According to principles of labour law and social security the fusion should maintains flexibility and security at balance. None said, however how that balance ought to be maintained, either how much financial resources needs or where found it.
In section related literature the paper purpose some connections among insights essays in different fields and declare what is our line. In section flexicurity inside it studies flexicurity, as such has been laid down by EU policy debate, in its three dimensions of flexibility, security, balance. It conclusion is that trade-off between flexibilisation e security not balance. So, in section flexicurity’s tail side exam the other side of flexicurity. It read its with the same lens of its theoretician to disclose the negligible effects, and to purpose a new reading in accordance with Nice’s Chart.
The paper -without any epistemology disclaimers, because it makes an economics reading by normative statements - uses externalities and tax distortion effect theories. The metaphor that it uses is the jeopardizing security means damage social environment, as well as pollution in natural environment does. Indeed, the paper considers externalities, for instance, the effects of two actions. Transition between declared work (first community) and undeclared work (second community) and transition between job security and employment security. In abstract line the first it is in the highest degree, the second in less degree depending on both its wideness and its point of balance with security. Hence, a social security system that working at decent level is ’social good’ that can be considered as public good – indeed it is. Better, we consider public good the security – also that inside and around flexicurity. Paper says who produces social pollution such as flexibility and undeclared work ought to pay security’s costs, this is social security tax. After all, articles 31 – 34.1 Nice’s Chert, between them connected, draw as system of EU a widespread social environment clean and pure. In others words must be sterilized - really, reduced as much as more possible - the trade-off between first community and second community - at the same between non-standard and standard contracts. In this paper one disagrees with some flexicurity’s theologians that say: ‘trust is a prerequisite of flexicurity’ Because if so, the security from reason of trust in the future it would became a reason of the trust in flexibility -a true aims’ heterogenesis. The paper chooses the social security tax.
And so, in section hybridisms of system pathways it poses the empiric bases to introduces kind of ’social security tax’ to fight undeclared work, to reduce externalities, to substitute trust in the market with true and strong financial social protection. Therefore this paper trays to give a little contribution to break link between work and security’s financing. It aims to demonstrate (also but not only, according to economics perspective) as flexicurity-balance can work in accordance with art. 31 and art. 34 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, social justice, worker security, whether the externalities inside flexicurity’s trade-off will be charged to flexibility. One considers universal like widespread, as well as flexicurity studies consider it. One considers not to change anything about subjective and objective assumptions in benefits, as well as in contribution over workers’ wages. - on the contrary one considers must not change (except possibles little adjustments).
Hence, conjecture’s hybridisms’ substance consist to leave all as it is, on side of workers, benefits’ assumptions,. exchanging criteria to charge on side of enterprises – towards the direction to charge work’s results’ value rather then wages. In the example, employees that will have undergone a transition from employment to e.g. self-employment, – indeed former employees – keep in same wages, but not in insurance tax.
Such as a mechanism of gradual transition from the various systems to a single system of financing, based on the value added of the work (table8). Mechanism that will be rewarding to those organizations that have high employment per unit of product, and - indirectly - proportionately more onerous for who directly or indirectly determines social dumping as a result of their politics of containment of labour costs. On one side is expected to act on the same tax base of VAT: increase in rate, or decrease in deduction of valley VAT. (Taxation system that is in Europe already harmonised and between its main source of funding.)
The effect of the hybrids is the one way. It should introduce a virtuous cycle to reduce the gap in competitiveness between local production and extra E.U. Of course, substance of the to do section, is very long and hence conclusions can be only open.
