It finds that economic growth alone does not guarantee improved job quality. Institutional changes, such as labor laws and collective bargaining, are crucial for enhancing employment conditions. The study uses econometric techniques to estimate the long-term relationship between the job quality index and GDP, revealing a negative correlation from 2005 onwards, suggesting that job quality began to improve amidst strong economic growth and favorable institutional reforms. \\ \\ (Generated with the help of GPT-4) \\ =====Additional Viewpoints===== Categories: {{tag>2010s_time_horizon}} | {{tag>2018_time_horizon}} | {{tag>English_publication_language}} | {{tag>Uruguay_geographic_scope}} | {{tag>case_studies}} | {{tag>econometric_models}} | {{tag>economic_growth}} | {{tag>employment}} | {{tag>gdp}} | {{tag>human_resources}} | {{tag>job_quality_index}} | {{tag>labor_institutions}} | {{tag>measurement}} | {{tag>working_conditions}} ~~DISCUSSION~~
