Abstract:

 This article aims to analyze the main factors that drive companies to rely on informal labor. To do so, an empirical study was conducted with companies in the construction and public works (BTP) sector in the Oran region, through a questionnaire and interviews with company managers. The results of this survey reveal that the adoption of informal labor is primarily motivated by the search for greater flexibility in terms of working hours, but also by the difficulty in finding qualified labor in the BTP sector. This situation highlights the structural challenges of the local labor market and the limitations of the available formal labor force.
