Abstract

Este artículo estima el efecto de la volatilidad del precio del petróleo sobre el mercado laboral ecuatoriano y analiza cómo ese efecto podría relacionarse con algunas desigualdades laborales estructurales. Para ello, el artículo combina un modelo econométrico de cohortes poblacionales y un modelo PVAR, ambos estimados con encuestas de empleo e información macroeconómica de Ecuador, para el periodo 2007-2019. Con tales modelos, se encontró que un aumento en el precio del petróleo tiene efectos positivos significativos en la producción, en los ingresos laborales y en la calidad del empleo. Ello evidencia que el mercado laboral ecuatoriano es altamente vulnerable a los shocks petroleros. ****** This paper estimates the effect of oil price volatility on the Ecuadorian labour market and analyses how this effect may be related with some structural labour inequalities. In that sense, the paper combines an econometric cohort model with a PVAR model, both estimated using labour surveys and macroeconomic data from Ecuador for the period 2007-2019. Using those models, it was found that a higher oil price has positive and significant effects on economic activity, labour income and labour quality, implying that the Ecuadorian labour market is strongly vulnerable to oil price shocks.
