AMARANTE, Verónica e ESPINO, Alma. Informalidad y desprotección social en Uruguay. Prob. Des [online]. 2009, vol.40, n.158, pp.33-54. ISSN 0301-7036.
This study quantifies the incidence of informality -defined according to the criterion used by the International Labor Organization -and the lack of social security in Uruguay during the period 1991-2005. It analyzes its superimposition and the characteristics and remunerations of the workers involved. Social security payments are the determinant factor in categorizing the workers according to their income levels. This strengthens the idea that the category lacking social security is more suitable for studying labor quality in Uruguay. However, the need for better methodological tools is clear, if we are to realize a broader study of the question of job quality, embracing other dimensions.
