Abstract

MONROY-GOMEZ-FRANCO, Luis. Who can work from home? Evidence from Mexico. Estud. Econ. (México, D.F.) [online]. 2021, vol.36, n.1, pp.89-113.  Epub Oct 18, 2021. ISSN 0186-7202.  https://doi.org/10.24201/ee.v36i1.413.

Using the data from the National Survey on Occupation and Employment (Encuesta Nacional de Ocupacíon y Empleo, ENOE) and following the methodology proposed by Dingel and Neiman (2020), I identify that only 20% of those employed are in occupations that can be performed remotely from the workplace. I also identify that these occupations are located at the right tail of the income distribution per hour worked. In regional terms, these occupations are situated in the Center and North parts of the country, which are the regions with higher incomes.

Keywords : COVID-19; ocupaciones; distribución; México; J22; J46; O15; O17.
