MAISTERRENA, Lourdes. Measuring job quality in Mexico from a gender perspective. Prob. Des [online]. 2024, vol.55, n.218, pp.89-116.  Epub 28-Ene-2025. ISSN 0301-7036.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iiec.20078951e.2024.218.70161.

This article measures and compares the quality of employment in Mexico from a gender perspective. Indices were constructed using principal components, including income, social security, job stability and work-life balance data from the ENOE for two periods (2012 and 2022). The results showed low and similar job quality in Mexico for both men and women, with significant heterogeneity between regions. The state with the highest job quality for women was Chihuahua, while Oaxaca had the lowest job quality across all indices. Income is the factor most affected over time for both genders, with a more significant disadvantage for women.

Palabras llave : quality of employment; decent work; gender; principal component analysis.
