EU jobs are definitely more safe because of labour laws alone.

OP, the same labour laws apply regardless of salary, e.g. my notice period is three months and my employer has to pay me for that time in full if they lay me off. Exceptions may apply to unskilled labour, e.g. waitresses

EU ahead of the US. But both are struggling due to the economic and political landscape.

EU unemployment: 6.1%

US unemployment: 3.5%

US jobs are more secure
