    El lugar de la mujer: La segregación ocupacional horizontal por razón de género en el mercado laboral peruano
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2023-11-22)
    This essay delves into the persistent problem of occupational gender segregation in the labor market and its impact on equal opportunities. Despite the increase in female participation in the workforce in recent decades, labor inequalities remain a reality that poses significant challenges to achieving gender equity in the workplace. In the Peruvian context, a marked occupational segregation is evident: women predominate in sectors such as services and commerce, while men mostly occupy “masculinized” positions in the formal private sector. The methodology used combines an exhaustive review of the literature from economic and gender perspectives with the analysis of official statistics and scientific publications. The bibliographic review is carried out from a multidisciplinary approach, which combines economic and gender elements, allowing a comprehensive analysis of occupational segregation based on gender. The collection and processing of relevant quantitative information on occupational segregation in the Peruvian context provides a solid basis for understanding the current situation and trends in the Peruvian labor market in relation to gender segregation. In this way, it seeks to make visible the pre-existing dimensions that define the place of women in the Peruvian labor market.

    Determinantes de la brecha salarial de la población migrante venezolana en Perú
    (College of the Northern Border, 2026-04-15)
    This study analyzes the determinants of wage differentials between Peruvians and Venezuelan migrants in Peru, with a particular focus on the labor conditions of migrant women. Using data from the National Household Survey (ENAHO) and the Survey of the Venezuelan Population Residing in Peru (ENPOVE) 2022, a Mincer-type wage equation is estimated, incorporating human capital variables, job characteristics, and sectoral controls. The results indicate that, in contrast to traditional human capital-related determinants, factors such as holding a formal contract and the productive sector of employment are more influential in explaining wage gaps. In sectors such as retail trade, hotels and restaurants, and personal services, education and work experience do not generate statistically significant returns for the Venezuelan population. Overall, the findings provide empirical evidence of labor market segmentation affecting migrants in Peru and highlight important implications for the design of inclusive labor market policies.
