Resumo(s)
In the aftermath of the Global and Financial Crisis, between 2013 and 2015, the
Portuguese government revoked four holidays for both public sector and private
employees. We test whether the revocation had an effect on labour productivity in
state-owned enterprises (SOEs) in Portugal. Moreover, we also study whether such
effects are different taking into account the SOEs managed by the Central Government or the Local and Regional Governments. Our results show that revocation of
holidays did not impact labour productivity for either central or local and regional
government managed SOEs. Though revocation of holidays espoused to improve
productivity, the policy seems to have served a ceremonial purpose, but not an economic one.
