description Technological change has meant that organizations require workers with higher qualifications, development, implementation and adaptation of technology looking to stay at the forefront in international competitiveness. The aim of this paper is to analyze the changes that have occurred in regional labor markets in Mexico on occupational and wage and identify to what extent these changes may have resulted from technological change and if this behavior is spatially homogeneous. The information source is made up of microdata from the National Survey of Urban Employment (Employment Survey) 2000–2004. The empirical analysis –considering workers officiating at high and low technological intensity and applying a Mincerian income function with different classification criteria: education, sex, age groups and regions– during the period indicate that there have been significant changes in the Mexican labor market as a result of biased technological change, as it provides statistical evidence indicating the existence of a higher wage premium for subordinates in the technological area, and different effects at the regional level, encouraging more to the border.

El cambio tecnológico ha provocado que las organizaciones requieran trabajadores con mayor calificación para el desarrollo, implementación y adaptación de tecnología en aras de hacer frente a la competitividad internacional. El objetivo de este documento es analizar las transformaciones que se han presentado en los mercados de trabajo regionales en México en materia ocupacional y salarial e identificar en qué medida estas modificaciones pueden ser consecuencia del cambio tecnológico y si este comportamiento es homogéneo a nivel espacial. La fuente principal de información fueron los microdatos de la Encuesta Nacional de Empleo Urbano (eneu) 2000–2004. Los resultados del análisis empírico –que consideró trabajadores en actividades de alta y baja intensidad tecnológica y aplicó una función de ingreso minceriana con diferentes criterios de clasificación: educación, sexo, grupos de edad y regiones– indican que durante el periodo se han presentado modificaciones importantes en el mercado laboral mexicano como consecuencia del cambio tecnológico sesgado, ya que se aporta evidencia estadística que indica la existencia de un mayor premio salarial para los subordinados en el área tecnológica y efectos diferenciados a nivel regional, favoreciendo en mayor medida a la frontera.
