    El objetivo de este trabajo consiste en analizar el posible impacto de la flexibilidad laboral sobre la industria de alojamiento en Andalucía. Para ello usamos los datos generados por el proyecto Calidad, Productividad y Competitividad en la Industria de Alojamiento en Andalucía. Nuestro modelo distingue entre trabajadores permanentes a tiempo completo (contrato estándar) y trabajadores que no cumplen una o ambas características (contrato no-estándar). Los resultados demuestran que tanto la flexibilidad numérica como los tipos de contrato no-estándar disminuyen la productividad del trabajo en los hoteles andaluces.

    The purpose of this paper is to analyze the effects of labour flexibility on productivity in the lodging industry in Andalusia. We use the data obtained by the Quality, Productivity and Competitiveness in the Hospitality Industry for Andalusia project. Our model distinguishes two employment shares: full-time permanent employees (standard work) and temporary and part-time employees (non-standard work). The results obtained suggest that numerical flexibility reduces labour productivity in the Andalusian hotels and the productivity of workers with temporary or part-time contracts is lower than productivity of workers with full-time permanent contracts.
