ROBLES LINARES, SERGIO CUAUHTEMOC GAXIOLA. COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF PRECARIOUS EMPLOYMENT IN THE THREE MAJOR MEXICANS CITIES FOR 2010. Rev.fac.cienc.econ. [online]. 2013, vol.21, n.1, pp.131-146. ISSN 0121-6805.

The objective of this article is to study the precarious employment of non - agricultural employees in 2010 of the three major Mexican cities: Ciudad de Mexico, Guadalajara and Monterrey. The empiric analysis of the precarious employment was made using two statistical tools. First, the analysis of main components that allows reducing the size of the analytic axis. Second, cluster analysis which helped to group the target population at different levels of precarization. The document presents that the cities analyzed exposed differentiated job markets with a relevant presence of the precariousness of the employment structure. Precarious employment is strongly rooted in Mexico City and Guadalajara, for the contrary, in Monterrey city the presence of precarity is lower because this urban center has a greater number of workers in the industrial sector.

Keywords : Precariousness Employment; Job Markets.
