  15. IFC Jobs Study: Key Findings • Investment Climate, Infrastructure, Access to Finance and Skills & Training are critical factors for job creation in developing countries. • Job creation effects are often much larger in supply chains and distribution networks of IFC clients (“indirect‟ jobs) than “direct‟ jobs created in IFC client companies. • Company size matters. • Higher labor productivity can be associated with faster employment growth. • Special attention must be paid to women and young people
