Impact of Entrepreneurship on Employment in Morocco: Multiple Regression Analysis

Abstract

ABSTRACT

Entrepreneurship is recognized as a fundamental pillar in the dynamics of employment, including in Morocco. This study investigates the impact of entrepreneurship on the Moroccan labor market using a multiple regression econometric approach, drawing on a rigorous selection of research from leading sources in the field. The results of this analysis categorically confirm that entrepreneurship plays an essential role in job creation in Morocco by stimulating the creation of new businesses and meeting the demand for skilled labor. However, this positive effect can be influenced by various factors such as the local economic context, national policies, and the specific characteristics of the Moroccan market.

On the one hand, entrepreneurship offers a glimmer of hope to individuals facing challenges in the Moroccan job market, thus contributing to economic growth through innovation and value creation. On the other hand, the obstacles inherent in setting up a business in this context, such as instability and the associated risks, can lead to fluctuations in the employment landscape, with potentially devastating consequences for some less privileged entrepreneurs. To promote an ecosystem conducive to entrepreneurship and sustainable job creation in Morocco, strategic government action is required, notably through policies aimed at facilitating access to financing, supporting the development of local entrepreneurial skills, and simplifying country-specific administrative regulations.

In summary, this analysis highlights the importance of understanding the complex dynamics between entrepreneurship and employment, particularly in the Moroccan context. It also underlines the crucial role of national public policies in stimulating economic growth and employment through entrepreneurship in Morocco.
