Abstract
FORMICHELLA, María Marta and LONDON, Silvia. Employability, Education, and Social Equality. rev.estud.soc. [online]. 2013, n.47, pp.79-91. ISSN 0123-885X.
This paper analyzes the link between the concepts of employability, education, and social equality. A large portion of society has limitations when entering or remaining in the job market. This difficulty in being "employable", understood as the "ability to obtain or keep a job", stands out in groups of individuals which have greater economic disadvantages. These individuals are caught in an environment that hinders studying and acquiring employability competences. This perpetuates and deepens social inequality in time.
Keywords : Employability; education; social equality.
