Abstract

En este artículo se analizan los efectos del aumento del salario mínimo en el salario y el empleo en México. Para ello se homologa el salario mínimo en dos zonas del país a finales de 2012 como fuente de variación. Utilizando la Encuesta Nacional de Ocupación y Empleo (ENOE), se realiza un análisis econométrico de corte transversal y otro de panel a nivel individual. Los resultados del primero indican que, en promedio, el salario por hora de los trabajadores de la zona B aumentó entre el 1,6% y el 2,6% y, en el caso de los trabajadores asalariados, entre el 1,8% y el 3,3%. El análisis de panel produce resultados similares. Si bien el análisis de corte transversal no revela un impacto en términos de empleo, los datos de panel indican que la probabilidad de ser trabajador informal (formal) disminuyó (aumentó) entre las personas afectadas por el incremento salarial.
