Abstract

La investigación tiene como objetivo verificar la existencia de disparidades salariales en México a partir del canal de búsqueda de empleo. En este caso, el análisis se centró en las redes de contactos de los individuos, emplea datos de la Encuesta Nacional de Ocupación y Empleo (enoe) del 2019, estimando una ecuación de determinación salarial semiloga-rítmica. Los resultados exhiben una prima salarial por haber obtenido empleo mediante Internet (12.4 %), un sindicato (6.7 %), bolsa privada (8.9 %) y contactos personales (6.7 %). Cuando se distingue por edad, se observa que las personas con más de 30 anos reportan el mayor impacto positivo de encontrar empleo a través de sus redes de contactos.
