The Jobs Act was a reform of labour law in Italy aimed at making the labour market more flexible. Promoted and implemented by the Renzi government through the issuance of various legislative provisions, it was completed in 2016. The name was inspired by the homonymous provision of the Obama administration in 2012, although it had different characteristics. The provision, bitterly opposed by various political groups and some labour unions, was adopted with the aim of reducing unemployment by encouraging companies to hire.
