Over nine million workers now informally employed in Argentina
Argentina’s economy is starting to look tidier when it comes to macroeconomics, but that improvement has not yet translated into a clear recovery in the job market. Unemployment levels remain virtually at the same level as a year ago, but there are worrying signs such as the growth of informal work, which already affects 44.4 percent of workers, or four out of every nine. “Making an analogy with the World Cup, macroeconomics is now tidier but the job market is playing a different match,” analysed Laura Caullo, an Economics graduate who heads the Employment and Social Policy Department at Fundación Mediterránea’s IERAL institute.
