Abstract

Esta investigación mide el efecto del empleo de las mujeres sobre la probabilidad de ser víctimas de violencia doméstica en el Perú y enfrenta el problema de endogeneidad de la variable de tratamiento mediante el uso de dos variables instrumentales (fenómenos naturales distritales y el número de niños beneficiados del Programa Nacional de Alimentación Escolar Qali Warma). Sobre la base de la ENDES 2013-2015, se encuentra evidencia que el grupo de mujeres que trabajan tienen de 14.2pp a 38.4pp mayor probabilidad de padecer de violencia de tipo emocional, menos severa, severa y sexual respecto al grupo de contraste. Asimismo, también se encuentra que las mujeres que no son beneficiadas del Programa Juntos por falta de cobertura registran mayor propensión a ser víctimas de los conflictos maritales.
