Theoretical evolution and criteria for its estimation derived from the International Labour Organization (ILO)2020-08-30T21:04:24-05:00Talina Contreras Dávilatalinacontreras@gmail.comThis article aims to contribute to the theoretical analysis of informal employment and to the definition of criteria for its estimation. The discussions on the informality of work and the proposals for its measurement in Latin America initiated in the 1970s have been modified and extended as labor flexibility and precariousness have become more pronounced. The International Labour Organization (ILO) has studied the concept to provide new elements for understanding and measurement in both developed and developing countries. Here, the first perspectives on the informal sector and the theoretical-statistical evolution of the ILO are analyzed in order to reveal two routes for measuring informal employment that include wage employment as an essential category of the labour market. The paper concludes that the concept can be operational for analysing and estimating employment conditions in economies with different levels of development.2020-07-08T00:00:00-05:00Copyright (c) 2020 Lebrethttps://revistas.ustabuca.edu.co/index.php/LEBRET/article/view/2411The company and accidents in the workplace.
