Abstract

Description

The chapters in this thesis investigate different types of “interventions” that affect Ecuador’s labor market and try to answer the following questions: Does fertility reduce female labor supply? Does a social security reform that extends coverage to workers' children increase formal employment? How can a positive and a negative non-labor income shock affect employment and marital status of individuals five years later? Even though these essays can be read separately they share some common aspects. First, these investigations are centered on market labor results. Second, they try to identify heterogeneous results considering different groups of the population. Third, they all focus on identifying causality using different empirical techniques. Finally, each essay uses Ecuador as a case study.
