摘要：Employment in the Netherlands grew rapidly during the previous
decade, fuelled by fast growth in the labour supply. At the
same time, unemployment fell significantly. What were the
dominant factors behind this favourable development? The
economic reform of the eighties had left the economy in a
favourable starting position, contributing to wage moderation
and increased profitability. Wage moderation continued into
the nineties, supported by additional tax cuts. After 1994, positive
external developments contributed to a cyclical upswing.
Finally, the increased use of flexible labour contracts may have
sped up the absorption of the labour supply.
