El estudio analiza los factores que han impactado el mercado de trabajo y el empleo en los estados de la frontera norte y las principales ciudades de esa región. Se relaciona el patrón del crecimiento económico seguido por la economía mexicana con el mercado laboral de la región. Se destacan las políticas de empleo nacional y en la región de la frontera norte en los últimos años y se analizan sus ventajas y limitaciones. Las tasas de d esempleo abierto en la frontera norte han sido menores a las de otras regiones, aunque existe presión por incorporar la creciente población económicamente activa. Resaltan la capacitación en Baja California y Nuevo León, los cuales han ofrecido cursos requeridos por las empresas en áreas técnicas, industriales y administrativas. Las políticas de empleo han sido un instrumento para canalizar recursos del Estado, pero sólo han logrado combatir el desempleo parcialmente, pues su naturaleza anticíclica les impide impactar efectivamente en el desempleo. El combate al desempleo requiere un esfuerzo para generar educación y capacitación acorde con las necesidades de las empresas.
