Labor Law Change

Dear NI2 students, 
Why don't you listen to this document about Spain and the recent changes on labor laws on npr.org?

VOCABULARY 
two-tier system: two levels 
temp job: temporary job 
on the dole: to be unemployed 
lay off workers: expell people from work.
overhaul: to repair or improve something so that every part of it works as it should I got the engine overhauled.  

HOW ABOUT YOU? 
Do you fall under any of these groups they mention on the document?
Are they right about Spain?
Do you think that stripping away some job protections will help to create more jobs?
