Abstract

The objective of this article is to measure labor precariousness in Central America in a multidimensional way using the Labor Precariousness Scale (epres). It is a cross-sectional descriptive study that uses data collected in the first Central America Survey of Working Conditions and Health (eeccts) in 2011, through a subsample of people who reported being enrolled in Social Security. A high percentage of precarious work was found in Central America. Women with ages between 31 and 50 years have the highest percentage (67,1%) compared to men at the same ages (61,8%).
