América Latina, contratos de duración determinada, empleo temporal, salariosResumen
América Latina ha experimentado un proceso de mejora significativa en el mercado laboral durante el nuevo milenio. A pesar de tales avances, dichos países continúan sufriendo importantes déficits en sus mercados laborales. La alta incidencia de la informalidad se convierte en una fuente de bajos salarios y falta de beneficios de Seguridad Social. Incluso dentro del empleo formal, la prevalencia significativa de los contratos no permanentes a menudo conduce a consecuencias similares a las de las ocupaciones informales. En este documento se analizan los contratos de duración determinada en ocho países de América Latina: Argentina, Brasil, Chile, Costa Rica, Ecuador, México, Paraguay y Perú. Nuestro objetivo estriba en estimar la incidencia, evolución y características de dicho fenómeno y evaluar en qué medida el empleo temporal genera brechas salariales. Las técnicas econométricas se utilizan para estimar no solo la brecha salarial promedio entre estos dos grupos de trabajadores sino también la penalidad experimentada por los trabajadores temporales ubicados en diferentes puntos de la distribución salarial.
