Abstract
GASPARINI, Leonardo et al. El empleo público en América Latina. Evidencia de las encuestas de hogares. El trimestre econ [online]. 2015, vol.82, n.328, pp.749-784. ISSN 2448-718X.
This paper provides evidence about the public employment in Latin America during the period 1992-2012, exploiting a standardized database of household surveys from all the countries of the region. These surveys constitute a useful tool because of their national representativeness, their frequency, and their wide coverage about employment and wage issues, both in the public sector as in the private, formal and informal. The article documents and analyzes the changes in the employment and wage levels of Latin-American public employees vis-à-vis the rest of workers.
