ORTIZ LAZCANO, Dolly Anabel  and  RODRIGUEZ ESPARZA, Luz Judith. Unemployment Vulnerability Index in Mexico: Effects of the covid-19 pandemic. Econ. soc. territ [online]. 2023, vol.23, n.71, pp.309-338.  Epub Mar 17, 2023. ISSN 2448-6183.  https://doi.org/10.22136/est20231862.

An Unemployment Vulnerability Index is presented to obtain the profiles of those employed in Mexico with the highest risk of losing their job, taking as reference labor data produced during the covid-19 pandemic. Among the results derived from the Analytical Hierarchical Process, it was found that the most influential variables to measure vulnerability to unemployment were sector and gender; thus women with basic education, working in the informal sector, in the services branch, or microenterprises and with low income, had a greater probability of losing their job.

Keywords : vulnerability; unemployment; covid-19; Hierarchical Analytical Process; Mexico.
