Abstract

El mercado laboral colombiano ha sido uno de los más golpeados por la pandemia respecto al resto de la región de América Latina. Esto ha afectado de mayor manera a las mujeres. Las disparidades existentes entre hombres y mujeres en el mercado laboral (respecto al desempleo, salarios y horas de trabajo no remunerado) que ya eran problemáticas, aumentaron aún más en la pandemia. Esto se explica parcialmente por problemas existentes como la segmentación dentro del mercado laboral y la discriminación hacia la mujer, que se han recrudecido. Adicionalmente, las mujeres se pueden encontrar en situaciones de mayor vulnerabilidad, debido a la falta de autonomía económica y las dificultades de reinserción laboral en el largo plazo. *** Colombia's labour market has been one of the most affected of the Latin American region due to the pandemic. This has affected women the most. The problematic disparities between women and men in the labour market are worsening as never before. This is partially explained by existing problems such as segmentation within the labour market and discrimination against women. Additionally, women can find themselves in situations of greater vulnerability, due to the lack of economic autonomy and the difficulties of labour reintegration in the long term.
