POY, Santiago. Occupational Structure Heterogeneity and Labor Market Segmentation: Gran Buenos Aires, 1974‐2014. Trab. soc. [online]. 2017, n.29, pp.353-376. ISSN 1514-6871.

The article’s objective is to describe the urban occupational structure’s long-term trends, in order to determine the continuities and changes under different macroeconomic regimes, in terms of three key aspects: its structural heterogeneity -with special reference to the micro-entrepreneurial or ‘informal’ sector-, the labor market segmentation and labor earnings inequality. In particular, it examines the hypothesis that states that it is the heterogeneous dynamic of occupational structure what determines the access to social-protected jobs, and labor earnings distribution, although labor regulations changes are taken into consideration. Micro-data from household’s survey (Encuesta Permanente de Hogares) are used, for the period 1974-2014, corresponding to Gran Buenos Aires area. The research finds an increase in the heterogeneous performance of occupational system with broader consequences in terms of labor earnings distributive pattern.
