Share of vulnerable employent in Argentina 1991-2019, by gender

In Argentina, working men had a higher rate of vulnerable employment than their female counterparts. In 2019, the rate of vulnerable employment among men stood at 24 percent, 21 percent in the case of working women.
Acording to the source, the category of vulnerable employment includes contributing family workers and own-account workers. Both economic groups face significant economic risks, and are the most likely to fall into poverty, due to their low chances to have formal work arrangements and to have social protection and safety nets to guard against economic shocks. Furthermore, they often lack the means to generate sufficient savings to offset these shocks..
