SALAS DURAZO, Iván Alejandro e ORDONEZ DE LA CRUZ, Fátima Gabriela. The working conditions of domestic employees. Dignification or precariousness?. La ventana [online]. 2023, vol.7, n.58, pp.148-184. Epub 28-Ago-2023. ISSN 1405-9436. https://doi.org/10.32870/lv.v7i58.7671.
In this papper, we analyze the working conditions of domestic workers in Mexico considering aspects associated with income, social security and tax formalization in order to assess the degree of succes of government actions aimed at improving the conditions of this group. For this, we designed an analysis model based on remuneration, job stability, social security and fiscal formalization. Likewise, its main socioeconomic characteristics are considered. For that, we used the microdata from the National Occupation and Employment Survey for the first quarter of the period between 2018 and 2021 to consider the stage prior to the implementation of the pilot test program for the incorporation of domestic workers into the Mandatory Social Security Regime, its implementation, and the two subsequent years. As the main result, it was identified that domestic workers are nowadays a vulnerable and invisible social group in the focus of government attention. They are characterized by a series of factors that aggravate their vulnerability: both due to their origin and their professional activity, which refer us to their historical precariousness.
