RAMOS BARROSO, Cristina Isabel e BOLIVAR RESTREPO, Maria Cristina. GENDER GAP AND THE COLOMBIAN LABOR MARKET IN THE TIME OF COVID-19. Semest. Econ. [online]. 2020, vol.23, n.55, pp.285-312. Epub 08-Out-2021. ISSN 0120-6346. https://doi.org/10.22395/seec.v23n55a13.
The purpose of this work is to analyze the impact of the global public health crisis derived from COVID-19 on women and their role in the Colombian labor market. The study tries to evaluate the dynamics of the main labor indicators in men and women, and to verify whether the health emergency has contributed to widening the gender gap in the labor market. The empirical strategy consists of a statistical analysis on the main labor indicators from the Great Integrated Household Survey (GEIH) for the year 2020, by the National Administrative Department of Statistics (DANE), as well as the documentary review on the main aspects existing in gender studies and the labor market. The main finding is that in most labor indicators, in particular the unemployment rate, inactivity rate and critical sectors, COVID-19 has contributed to increase the labor gap between men and women in the labor market.
