Abstract: Esta investigación analiza el impacto de la informalidad laboral en la salud de los trabajadores informales en Perú durante el periodo 2015-2019, centrándose en el riesgo de padecer enfermedades. Se desarrolla un marco teórico basado en el modelo de determinantes sociales de la salud de la OMS y se realiza una revisión exhaustiva de la literatura existente. Utilizando la Encuesta Nacional de Hogares (ENAHO) y aplicando la metodología Probit con variables instrumentales, se encuentra que el empleo informal tiene un efecto positivo y significativo en la probabilidad de tener una enfermedad en comparación con los trabajadores formales. Específicamente, trabajar en un empleo informal aumenta la probabilidad de tener una enfermedad en aproximadamente un 25.48%. Además, el acceso a seguro de salud incrementa la probabilidad de reportar una enfermedad, posiblemente debido a una mayor detección y diagnóstico. La edad avanzada, residir en áreas urbanas y ser mujer también se asocian con una mayor probabilidad de tener una enfermedad. Los resultados respaldan la hipótesis de que la informalidad laboral tiene un impacto negativo en la salud de los trabajadores informales en Perú, lo que destaca la importancia de abordar este problema a través de políticas públicas integrales.
This research analyzes the impact of informal employment on the health of informal workers in Peru during the period 2015-2019, focusing on the risk of developing diseases. A theoretical framework based on the WHO's model of social determinants of health is developed, and an exhaustive review of the existing literature is carried out. Using the National Household Survey (ENAHO) and applying the Probit methodology with instrumental variables, it is found that informal employment has a positive and significant effect on the probability of having a disease compared to formal workers. Specifically, working in informal employment increases the probability of having a disease by approximately 25.48%. Additionally, access to health insurance increases the likelihood of reporting a disease, possibly due to greater detection and diagnosis. Advanced age, residing in urban areas, and being female are also associated with a higher probability of having a disease. The results support the hypothesis that informal employment has a negative impact on the health of informal workers in Peru, highlighting the importance of addressing this issue through comprehensive public policies.
