Sumario:The article proposes a characterization of the self-employment of young people who reside in the Gran Resistencia urban agglomeration (Chaco Province), showing some variations in this group in two temporal contexts (pre-pandemic/pandemic) and comparing them with some of the trends to national level and in the NEA region (Northeast Argentina). It is based on a quantitative methodological design using as a source the individual microdata bases of the Permanent Household Survey, belonging to the National Institute of Statistics and Censuses of the Argentine Republic (INDEC). The results obtained show that youth self-employment in the analyzed territory increased in the context of the pandemic, especially in young people of lower age and educational level. Although similar trends and characteristics of this occupational category are observed in this urban agglomeration in the total population, young people are in a more disadvantaged position in terms of working conditions.
