La mayoría de los estudios en materia de flexibilidad laboral muestran una imagen parcial sobre la situación de los mercados de trabajo latinoamericanos. Se limitan a confirmar la existencia de elevados grados de rigidez y la necesidad de emprender reformas laborales al margen de las circunstancias nacionales específicas. El diseño de un indicador sintético de rigidez laboral, utilizando la metodología considerada por la ocde, mediante el uso del análisis factorial, pero aplicada a países de Iberoamérica, permite obtener ciertos avances en relación con este debate. Los resultados establecen la elevada importancia de la rigidez en los procedimientos de despido colectivo por encima de aspectos normativos relacionados con contratos por tiempo determinado. Por último, se constata la escasa relación entre niveles de flexibilidad y resultados en términos de desarrollo económico, poniendo en cuestión afirmaciones que intentan extrapolar estrategias flexibilizadoras como medida aislada para facilitar el progreso económico de un país.
