Abstract
This research work addresses the problems presented by the complex labor insertion process of young people, with a focus on low-income populations. At the same time, it is sought, from a field work of a qualitative type, to face it from the perceptions and meanings that the young residents in the town of San Miguel have about employment, unemployment, precarious employment and their relationship with the education.
Numerous authors who study the subject explain that, influenced by major changes in the context of current societies, such as increased unemployment, unregistered employment, and various new forms of labor flexibility, insertion in the labor market ceased to be a simple step from education to formal employment to become in the last decades a complex heterogeneous process where alternate, by voluntary or involuntary decisions, periods of unemployment, precarious employment, underemployment, until in some cases to reach inactivity by discouragement. This insertion process does not always end in job stability when entering adult life, but it can become a permanent condition in its relationship with the labor market.
Those young people who show the highest rates are those with the lowest resources, and within that group, young women suffer the highest rates of unemployment and precarious employment. This research begins by analyzing the current debate on the concept of youth, that is, tries to explain to those we refer to when we speak of "youth" and also describes other concepts that are analyzed throughout the work. Afterwards, an analysis of the situation of young people is made, seen from the perspective of the authors who work on the subject, from the reading of their publications.
Followed by this, we begin with the analysis of the field work describing the four specific objectives proposed. In the first one, the current situation of the young people interviewed and their closest associates is detailed, as seen from their own perceptions and opinions regarding access to employment, precarious employment and unemployment.
In the analysis of the second objective, we observe the perceptions and meanings that young people have about the relationship between education and access to employment, based on the level of education attained. In the third objective, the perceptions and meanings of young people about the public policies offered by national, provincial and municipal governments to their age group and how the impact on them is addressed. Finally, the expectations that young people have in the short and medium term about their insertion in the labor market and the feasibility that they consider to achieve are described.
It is sought, from this research, generates data which makes an additional contribution to the problem described and provides more and better information to designers and implementers of public policies aimed at young people. The elaboration of qualitative studies on this problem is considered relevant, in order to improve the general diagnosis, observed from the expression of its protagonists.
