FERNANDEZ MASSI, Mariana. THE SCALE OF WORK PRECARITY: A MAP OF THE CHARACTERISTICS OF EMPLOYMENT BY SECTOR IN ARGENTINA. Cuad. Econ. [online]. 2014, vol.33, n.62, pp.231-257. ISSN 0121-4772.  https://doi.org/10.15446/cuad.econ.v33n62.43675.

The concept of labour precariousness refers to a set of working conditions. There are no precarious jobs and non-precarious ones, but lower or higher degrees of precariousness in the different segments of the economic structure. This article aims at: a. constructing indicators (with a method of factorial analysis) to understand the different dimensions that the concept of precariousness embodies; b. evaluating the different types of precarious conditions in the different fields of the Argentinian productive structure on the basis of microdata collected in 2010.

Keywords : Employment; precariousness; Argentina; factor models.
