Impact of migration on employment and wage distribution in Colombia

Impact of migration on employment and wage distribution in Colombia

This document presents empirical evidence to understand the impacts of migration on the labor market in Colombia, through the estimation of a multinomial logit-type model for employment and unconditional quantile regression for the effect on wages with information from 2015 to 2019. For both estimat...

For both estimates, a difference in differences model is used in order to determine the effect of migration. The main conclusion of the study indicates evidence of an effect on the distribution of employment and wages that refer to the most vulnerable groups, with less education and informality, through an increase in competition in the unskilled labor segment. The effect on wages is limited, but more evident in the lowest income quartiles of the income distribution, with a significant drop in job quality with increases in informality. El objetivo es presentar evidencia empírica sobre el impacto de la migración en salarios y empleo del mercado de trabajo de Colombia, a través de la estimación de un modelo de regresión logística tipo logit multinomial para el empleo y una regresión cuantílica incondicional para el efecto en los salarios, con información de 2015 a 2019. Para ambas estimaciones se emplea un modelo diferencia en diferencias para determinar el efecto de la migración. La principal conclusión del estudio señala evidencia de un efecto sobre la distribución de empleo y salarios que afecta a los grupos más vulnerables, con menor educación e informalidad, a través de un incremento de la competencia en el segmento de mano de obra no calificada. El efecto sobre los salarios es limitado, pero mucho más evidente en los cuartiles de ingresos más bajos de la distribución de ingresos, con una significativa caída en la calidad del empleo con incrementos en la informalidad.
