Universidad de San Andrés. Departamento de Economía; Argentina. I estimate a quantile regression (QR) to assess informal wage penalties at different points along the conditional wage distribution in Argentina and within the country. I exploit a panel data set from a quarterly household survey from 2016 to 2018 (Encuesta Permanente de Hogares) from the National Institute of Statistics in Argentina, INDEC (Instituto Nacional de Estadistica y Censos de Argentina) and the identifications relays on the cross-sector movers. Results show that the wage gap is bigger for the lower 20% of the distribution than the upper 80% of conditional distribution for the whole country, and this effect is reduced by one third when I consider the individuals' heterogeneity. I find a reversion in the penalty gap appears in Buenos Aires, NOA and NEA, where the lower and upper workers have a higher penalty than the median informal worker. These estimations are robust to the informal definition and highlight the importance of a distribution analysis to account for heterogeneous effects in the labor market. 2021-08-18T20:53:05Z 2021-08-18T20:53:05Z 2019-08 Tesis info:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesis info:ar-repo/semantics/tesis de maestría info:eu-repo/semantics/updatedVersion Romero, M.
