Mediante un enfoque comparativo basado en entrevistas cualitativas, se examina cómo los trabajadores negocian márgenes de decisión en contextos marcados por la precarización, el control algorítmico y la reputación pública. Aunque insertos en sectores distintos, ambos grupos comparten la autogestión del tiempo, la ausencia de derechos laborales y la individualización del riesgo. A partir de sus experiencias, se propone el concepto de autonomía negociada para describir un proceso donde agencia y control coexisten en tensión, lo que permite a los trabajadores construir sentidos laborales que trascienden la dicotomía entre subordinación total y libertad plena.]]></p></abstract>

Using a comparative approach based on qualitative interviews, it explores how workers negotiate decision-making margins in contexts marked by precarity, algorithmic control, and public reputation systems. Despite belonging to different sectors, both groups share self-management of time, lack of labor rights, and individualized risk. Drawing from their experiences, we propose the concept of negotiated autonomy to describe a process where agency and control coexist in tension, enabling workers to construct meaningful relationships to their labor beyond the dichotomy of total subordination and complete freedom.]]></p></abstract>
