Measuring work dynamics in job markets such as the Argentine one, with high rates of open unemployment, which persist over time, means researching the structure itself of such market, in the profile of those employed and unemployed. The present paper poses the need to outline concepts and methodologies with the aim of realizing the measurement of hidden unemployment within the activity rate. It constitutes an instance so as to continue discussing the topic of job statistics in developing countries, in which the composition of the activity rate - employed/unemployed- does not reflect the situation of the job market.

Keywords : Hidden unemployment; Permanent Home Survey; Concordia agglomeration.
