This article analyzes some specificities of the labor trajectories of Peruvian migrant women residing in the city of Córdoba (Argentina). Using a qualitative methodology based on in-depth interviews and participant observation, it explores the cross-cutting characteristics of these trajectories within the framework of a reflection that considers time as a key analytical factor. Among its main findings, it highlights the double dimension of labor temporality, oscillating between intermittency and long duration. On the one hand, it identifies certain short-term labor pathways, generally associated with self-employment; on the other, it observes long-term employment in specific jobs and the inability to achieve mobility beyond them. Both dimensions of that temporality are part of a deeply entrenched pattern of precarious and informal work.
