Abstract

Tanulmányunk a magyarországi romák reziduális (megfigyelhető jegyekkel nem magyarázható) foglalkoztatási hátrányának területi különbségeit vizsgálja. Miközben a diszkriminációval szembeni jogi védelem hasonló egy országon belül, az előítéletesség foka és a piaci struktúrák eltérnek. Hipotézisünk szerint a romák foglalkoztatási hátránya ott a legnagyobb, ahol erős az etnikai előítéletesség, és egyidejűleg magas a kisvállalatoknál dolgozók aránya. Az előfeltevést a 2011-es népszámlálás egyéni adatain, több kiegészítő forrás felhasználásával teszteljük. A megfigyelt egyének foglalkoztatási esélyét becslő egyenletekben a roma etnikai hovatartozást, a kisvállalatok járáson belüli foglalkoztatási súlyát és a Jobbik akkori támogatottságát mérő indikátorokat, valamint ezek interakcióit szerepeltetjük. Előzetesen kimutatjuk, hogy a Jobbik támogatottsága szoros kapcsolatban állt a helyi népesség erősen előítéletes tagjainak részarányával, továbbá a kisvállalatok kisebb arányban foglalkoztatnak romákat, különösen akkor, ha a munkakör csapatmunkát vagy a fogyasztókkal való kapcsolatot feltételez. Fő egyenletünkben a roma etnicitás, a kisvállalati részarány és a Jobbik szavazati aránya hármas interakciójának együtthatója várakozásunknak megfelelően negatív. A férfiaknál a roma-nem roma foglalkoztatási rés az átlagosnál 20-40 százalékkal szélesebb erős Jobbik-támogatottság és sok kisvállalat esetén. A roma nők kisebb arányban dolgoznak a diszkriminációnak erősen kitett helyeken, foglalkoztatásukra erősebben hatnak a kínálati döntéseik, esetükben nem találunk bizonyítékot a vizsgált keresleti oldali összefüggésre. Az eredmények arra figyelmeztetnek, hogy az antidiszkriminációs jogalkotás elégtelen a probléma kezeléséhez, annak enyhítéséért a korlátokkal számot vető foglalkoztatáspolitikai eszközökre, valamint a stigmatizáció elleni lépések sokaságára lenne szükség.* Journal of Economic Literature (JEL) kód: J71, R23.
