Spain's labour market is characterized by a dual structure of permanent and temporary contracts, affecting job security and flexibility. Labour market reforms have aimed to reduce unemployment and increase market flexibility, while global economic changes and the integration of immigrants present both challenges and opportunities. Future reforms may focus on job stability, workers' rights, and adapting to a digital economy.
