Abstract

Con datos de la Encuesta Intercensal 2015 y de los censos de 2010 y 2000, este trabajo analiza la integración laboral de los trabajadores procedentes del triángulo norte de Centroamérica en México y presenta evidencia de que sus salarios y prestaciones han sido más altos que los de los trabajadores mexicanos comparables, en grupos de inmigrantes y periodos determinados. Para comprobar los resultados controlando por efectos fijos temporales y por condiciones de demanda, se estimaron ecuaciones de salarios con los datos de los censos y la encuesta intercensal integrados y de manera separada para migrantes y nativos.
