Resumen
JIMENEZ RESTREPO, Diana Marcela y PAEZ CORTES, Jessica Natalia. An Alternative Method for Measuring Employment Quality in Colombia (2008-2012). Soc. Econ. [online]. 2014, n.27, pp.129-154. ISSN 1657-6357.
Although we do not have an exclusive definition about employment quality, we do agree that it must meet minimal conditions such as the existence of a contract, the access to social security, a fair wage, and a fair workday. For the main 13 metropolitan areas of Colombia, having available data for the second quarters from 2008 to 2012, and applying the multiple factor analysis, as a technique making part of an alternative methodology for measuring job quality, we found that many employees earn at least one minimum wage, they don't have a contract, their workday is not legal, and they are affiliated to health service.
