Abstract:
During the last three decades, the Mexican economy has not generated enough jobs for the expanding labour force. Unemployment rate in Mexico is low, but almost one third of the labour force works in the informal sector. Migration flows from Mexico to the US have been significant in the last decade. Even though the number of Mexicans in the US has remained stable, Mexican immigration to the US dropped from 2006 to 2009. Emigration is a key employment channel for the enlarged working-age Mexican population. A reduced migratory flow may pose a major challenge for the Mexican labour market.

Abstract:
Using matched data from the Current Population Survey from 2005 to 2011 ( n = 5,507), we use multinomial and binary logistic regression models to examine employment transitions related to the Great Recession for five groups of men with less than a high school degree: foreign-born Mexicans, other foreign-born, and US-born whites, blacks, and Latinos. We find that, during the recession, Mexican immigrants were the most likely to remain continuously employed. However, immigrant workers also experienced high levels of involuntary part-time employment during the recession, suggesting that their rel

This article uses census microdata to address key issues in the Mexican immigration debate. First, we find striking parallels in the experiences of older and newer immigrant groups with substantial progress among second- and subsequent-generation immigrants from southern and eastern Europe and Mexican Americans. Second, we contradict a view of immigrant history that contends that early–twentieth–century immigrants from southern and eastern Europe found well–paying jobs in manufacturing that facilitated their ascent into the middle class. Both first and second generations remained predominantly

Using the 2002-2012 National Latino Surveys, we assess whether enforcement of immigration law through employment verification (E-Verify) mandates has affected perceptions of discrimination among Hispanic citizens—a group that is clearly authorized to work. E-Verify could adversely affect Hispanic citizens if employers avoid hiring Hispanics for fear they could be found ineligible through this program. We find, instead, that naturalized Mexicans perceive less employment discrimination after E-Verify is mandated. Perhaps, the program provides employers with an unobtrusive mechanism to ascertain

As in other societies, socioeconomic inequality in Mexico is manifested in disparities in morbidity and mortality rates among the Mexican population. Individuals living under the most precarious socio-economic conditions display higher rates of child mortality and other health conditions that are often often associated with poor economic development, such as malnutrition. Moreover, Mexicans from lower socio-economic levels also experience higher rates of weight gain, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and depression.

Empirically, the prevalence of underemployment among Mexican origin and whites workers for the 1976-1987 period is analyzed. During this 12-year span, the level of underemployment for Mexican workers increased from 32 percent to 42 percent, while the white level fluctuated around 21 percent. Models to deter

Abstract:
This paper analyzes the correlation between the expansion of the Mexican Conditional Cash Transfer program Oportunidades and the evolution of the labor market over the period 2000-10. We find no evidence of perverse effects. Program expansion was not associated with drops in either labor force participation or wageformality. On the contrary, the expansion of Oportunidades was strongly correlated with a transition from informal wage employment to self-employment for men (by 1.6% and 0.6% of total employment in rural and urban municipalities respectively). These findings suggest that Oportunidad

Abstract:
Due to an increase in import competition from the early 2000s, Mexico experienced a loss in manufacturing employment of 1.8 percentage points accompanied by a decrease in wages in the short run. These negative effects persisted but its size decreased in absolute value. Twenty after the shock, the negative effects have disappeared. This fade out on the aggregate effects on employment happened through several adjustments in the labor market. Wage employees were substituted by contract workers, and formal workers substituted by informal workers.

Abstract:
The main purpose of this paper is to measure the contributions of the changes in the labor market to the increase in inequality experienced by Mexico after the 1985 trade and financial liberalization. To do so, the paper uses data from Mexican household surveys (Encuesta Nacional de Ingreso Gasto de los Hogares de México) produced by the Mexican Institute for Statistics, Geography and Informatics (Instituto Nacional de Estadística, Geografía e Informática) for 1984 and 1994. The paper applies a counterfactual methodology to measure the effects on inequality of changes in labor force participat

Abstract:
This paper investigates the impact of Mexico's labor outsourcing partial ban on formal workers' labor market outcomes. Using longitudinal administrative data and an event-study framework, we analyze the evolution of employment and wages before and after the reform. The findings show that post-reform, regularized workers were more likely to retain their positions in the private formal job sector compared to a counterfactual scenario without the reform. Moreover, due to the reform, wages for workers directly affected increased by 3-4%, with significant variation across gender, age, industry, fir
