apuesta por un reconocimiento constitucional amplio del derecho al trabajo y a la seguridad social en Ecuador
2021
espanolLa integracion del derecho al trabajo en el constitucionalismo social de posguerra se caracterizo, entre otras cuestiones, por la incorporacion de la division del trabajo, diferenciando entre aquel remunerado, integrado en las normas constitucionales y sobre el que se asento en gran medida el reconocimiento de un amplio conjunto de derechos sociales; y el no remunerado, ausente del reconocimiento constitucional y normativo y condenado a la invisibilizacion y a ser acumulado sobre el anterior. Esta diferenciacion se fundamento, evidentemente, en la division sexual del trabajo integrada en la conjuncion del patriarcado con el sistema capitalista y recogida en las normas del constitucio…
Trabajo no remunerado y trabajo negro en España
2005
enric.sanchis@uv.es El trabajo irregular y el no remunerado tienen una importancia considerable en el Estado español, por lo que el análisis de la estructura y evolución del empleo no puede hacerse al margen de ellos. En este artículo se ofrece una visión de conjunto de ambos fenómenos a partir de algunas de las investigaciones llevadas a cabo durante los últimos años. Casi la totalidad del trabajo no remunerado se hace en el ámbito de las relaciones familiares. Se calcula que dos tercios de la carga total de trabajo que soporta la economía española es trabajo doméstico no remunerado, mayoritariamente hecho por mujeres. No obstante, el trabajo voluntario no familiar equivale aproximadamente…
The Division of Labour Within Households: Men’s Increased Participation?
2018
Unequal division of domestic labor has been seen as a one of the most commonly documented feature on gender inequality in the western countries. The relevance of studying the division of labour in the household has actualized as female participation rates in paid labour have increased and changes in employment systems have taken place. Division of labor refers to the amount and share of time men and women spend in paid and unpaid work. Unpaid work includes domestic chores such as cleaning, repairs, preparing meals, but also caring for children. Unpaid work is usually divided in three subgroups: core household tasks i.e. housework, repairs and household upkeep and child care. Paid and unpaid…
ESTIMATION OF AN EXTENDED SAM WITH HOUSEHOLD PRODUCTION FOR SPAIN 1995
2005
This paper implements the conceptual framework sketched by Pyatt (1990) to construct an extended Social Accounting Matrix for Spain in 1995 (ESAM-95) to consider, in addition to the market economy, the production of services provided by households through unpaid work. In doing so, the ESAM-95 integrates the accounts related to market activities (ESA accounts) with non-market activities (non-ESA accounts) in a consistent way. Additional classifications are introduced in both ESA and non-ESA accounts in order to disaggregate the institutional accounts by household type and those of production factors by educational level and gender. The extended SAM is useful to calibrate CGE models in which …
Rethinking the Role of Volunteering in the Labor Market Inclusion of Migrants
2023
In this article, we critically investigate the role that volunteering can have in the labor market inclusion of migrants. We consider how volunteering can both enhance and hinder inclusion through a comparison of two different contexts: Finland and the United Kingdom, where both welfare state and migration regimes are differently shaped. We also question whether volunteering to gain work experience can be defined as “volunteering” or whether it corresponds more with a definition of unpaid labor. Our research is based on 104 interviews with migrants (including refugees and asylum seekers) from various nationalities. We find that volunteering is used in both countries as a way to gain work e…
