This paper analyses temporary work and job satisfaction among salaried workers during the Spanish economic crisis of 2008. Using data from the Spanish National Statistics Institute (INE) 2013 Economically Active Population Survey (EAPS), we find that temporary workers lost their job more than others during this period. However, salaried workers have higher average levels of satisfaction in 2007-2010, possibly due to the lower requirements of workers. We find a positive relationship between the unlikeliness of keeping a job and low job satisfaction levels in data from the Survey of Quality of Life at Work (2010) through a correspondence analysis. A linear model with a level of job satisfaction as a dependent variable shows negative coefficients for a level of job satisfaction if the probability of keeping the job is somewhat unlikely or very unlikely. Finally, an ordinal probit regression finds that the estimated likelihood to reach high job satisfaction is lower in temporary workers.
The aim of this paper is to analyze the intensity and direction of spillover effects of foreign direct investment (FDI) on value added in Spanish manufacturing.Particularly, we estimate a multiple linear regression model for a production function. This model explain the effects of FDI and intangible asset investment in value added. Results are agree with traditional literature, because it shows that there are positive spillovers on value added from enterprises with foreign direct investment towards local firms.
