The humanitarian emergency in Venezuela has generated one of the most important migratory movements in the last 50 years in Latin America, with an estimate of five million people who have been displaced from Venezuela, of which 1.4 million of them are in Peru. Given this situation, this research seeks to study the effects of a labor supply shock on the wages of the Economically Active Population (EAP) for the period 2018-2021. We used, information at the worker level from the National Household Survey (ENAHO) together with the estimation of a difference-in-differences model for the main metropolitan areas of Peru, controlling for indicators of industry, occupation and deaths by COVID-19. The evidence suggests that migratory flows have null effects on the salary of the EAP, only finding a small effect (of 2.5 percentage points) on the salary (main and secondary income from work) of the EAP in Metropolitan Lima. The mechanisms that explain this effect are found in the differential impacts on the informal EAP, the youngest and those with less education.
