Abstract

En el presente trabajo evaluamos el impacto de la extensión del régimen de asignaciones familiares argentino a monotributistas en 2016 sobre algunos indicadores vinculados al mercado laboral. Utilizando la metodología de diferencia en diferencias, encontramos que la reforma produjo un incremento estadísticamente significativo de 2.4 puntos porcentuales en la participación laboral de los individuos con hijos que se traduce en un incremento de magnitud análoga en la probabilidad de ocupación. Este efecto es sustancialmente mayor entre las mujeres (3 pp) que entre los hombres (0.8 pp). Asimismo, no hallamos efectos significativos sobre el promedio de horas trabajadas de los individuos elegibles.
