Abstract
Las mujeres hemos alcanzado transcendentales
avances en el mercado laboral. Nuestras
tasas de actividad y de ocupación se han incrementado
considerablemente, nos hemos situado
en sectores en los que no había presencia
femenina, etc. Sin embargo, aún quedan pendientes
desafíos trascendentales. Las tasas de
paro aún son bastante superiores a las masculinas;
somos mayoría en el tiempo parcial y
las principales responsables de la conciliación
familiar, con las limitaciones que ello supone en
la esfera laboral; tenemos salarios más bajos y
mayores dificultades a la hora de promocionar
laboralmente, etc. En este trabajo nos centramos
en dos regiones concretas: Andalucía y
Yucatán. Estas regiones presentan singularidades
en sus respectivos países (España y Mé-
xico) que las hacen interesantes a la hora de
contrastar la situación del empleo femenino y
las situaciones de desigualdad existente en los
mercados de trabajo de ambos territorios.
Women have achieved significant progresses in the labor market. Our activity rates and employment have increased considerably; we have located in sectors where there were no female presence, etc. However, there are still outstanding critical challenges. Unemployment rates are still considerably higher than male; we are majority in part-time and primarily responsible for family reconciliation, with the limitations that this implies in the workplace; we have lower wages and greater difficulties in promoting in labor, and so on. In this paper we focus on two specific regions: Andalusia and Yucatan. These regions have peculiarities in their respective countries (Spain and Mexico) that make them interesting to contrast the situation of women’s employment and situations of inequality in the labor markets of both territories.
