Covid-19 in Central AmericaFirm resilience and policy responses on employmentFirm capabilitiesGovernment supportInnovationResilienceEconomics and EconometricsFunding Information: A previous version of this study was originally under the UNU-WIDER project Transforming informal work and livelihoods and presented at the WIDER Development Conference ‘COVID-19 and development-effects and new realities for the Global South’, 6-8 September 2021). Publisher Copyright: © 2022 The AuthorsThis paper examines how government support interacts with firm-level resilience capabilities in the reduction of layoffs among formal firms in Central America. Our analysis suggests that government support measures play a role in reducing the probability of layoffs among firms with only dynamic resilience capabilities (i.e., those that are developed after the pandemic onset). The effect of government support is not statistically different from the effect of static resilience capabilities alone (i.e., those that were present before the pandemic); thus, in firms with such capabilities, the effect of government support will be marginal. These results hold across sectors - exhibiting a marginally higher treatment effect in service sectors. Our results do not imply that Covid-19 supportive measures are to be disregarded, but instead raise the question of how government support policies could improve the allocation of support among firms in times of crises. Moreover, it underlines the necessity of policies that enhance resilience more broadly – a task that hints at structural issues and requires continuous government support in lieu of ad-hoc measures.NOVA School of Business and Economics (NOVA SBE)RUNCalzada Olvera, BeatrizGonzalez-Sauri, MarioMoya, David Alexander HaringsLouvin, Federico2023-11-20T22:07:58Z2022-11-012022-11-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/article16application/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/160189eng0161-8938PURE: 49040268https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jpolmod.2022.11.005info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T05:42:44Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/160189Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:57:53.859172Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
