The economic crisis in Cameroon has provided a test for distinct causes of labour market segmentation. Many firms that previously followed rigid legislation have ceased to do so, while a traditional informal sector has continued outside almost all regulation.

Direct legislation is the most sigificant cause of segmentation. (DSE/DÜI)
