Análisis de flujos en el mercado laboral chileno
Abstract
This paper analyzes the dynamics of the salaried labor market in Chile using monthly micro data from the unemployment insurance data base. Flows between labor states are calculated, as well as flows between geographic areas and economic sectors. The analysis shows great dynamism of the labor market during the period analyzed. In particular, we find that a high proportion of workers change jobs without going through the state of unemployment. Construction, Business activities, Trade and Agriculture generate 62% of the dynamism in changes, i.e. creation and destruction of jobs. Around 78% of workers who change jobs also change their district. However, if we take into account changes outside the Metropolitan Region, the percentage drops to almost a fifth. Additionally, the Metropolitan Region is where most workers emigrate to other regions and where a higher percentage of Jobs are created and destroyed.
