SILVA ARIAS, ADRIANA CAROLINA  y  SARMIENTO ESPINEL, JAIME ANDRÉS. FORCIBLY DISPLACED POPULATION AND ITS PARTICIPATION IN COLOMBIAN LABOR MARKET. Rev.fac.cienc.econ. [online]. 2013, vol.21, n.1, pp.167-187. ISSN 0121-6805.

Participation in workforce is the result of multiple factors. Excluding some factors related to socio-demographic conditions of forcibly displaced population, we estimated a logistical multinomial model to explain occupational status (inactive, unoccupied and occupied) in the place where forcibly displaced population is located and other population groups from a subsample of Colombian Census 2005. This model was estimated by sex, because factors that determine labor participation may be different for men than for women. Estimation results suggest that forcibly displaced individuals, such women as men, reflected a structural higher unemployment. Furthermore, forcibly displaced individuals also experienced disadvantages compared to socio-demographic profile of other boarder migrants and native population.

Palabras clave : Forcibly displaced population; Labor participation; Multinomial logistic model.
