Resumo: This article aims to discuss the concept of “secondary labor force” to characterize female workforce in Latin America. Such characterization corresponds increasingly less to reality, as women’s participation in the labor force and the hours dedicated to their paid work continues to grow, as well as their contribution to household income. The article argues that such characterization is one of the core elements of the gender discriminating patterns that persist in Latin American labor market.

Esa caracterización, hecha con frecuencia en forma mecánica por un lado corresponde, cada vez menos a la realidad de los hechos, ya que es creciente la participación femenina en el mercado de trabajo, así como la continuidad de sus trayectorias laborales, el número de horas dedicadas al trabajo remunerado, así como su aporte al ingreso familiar y a la superación de la situación de pobreza de un porcentaje importante de hogares. Por otro lado, el texto argumenta que esa caracterización es uno de los elementos centrales en la estructuración de los patrones de discriminación de género que persisten y se reproducen en el mercado de trabajo latinoamericano.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2004-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/S0104-026X200400020001310.1590/S0104-026X2004000200013Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 12 No. 2 (2004); 224Revista Estudos Feministas; Vol. 12 Núm. 2 (2004); 224Revista Estudos Feministas; v. 12 n. 2 (2004); 2241806-95840104-026Xreponame:Revista Estudos Feministasinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/article/view/S0104-026X2004000200013/7902Copyright (c) 2018 Revista Estudos Feministasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAbramo, Laís2020-01-30T08:21:15Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/8603Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/ref/oai||ref@cfh.ufsc.br1806-95840104-026Xopendoar:2022-11-21T11:37:30.110401Revista Estudos Feministas - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)true
