Resumen
MORALES TORRES, Mara Yazmín. Young people, employment and education: precarious enrollment to the labor market. trf [online]. 2022, vol.18, n.2, pp. 300-316. Epub 01-Mayo-2022. ISSN 2077-2955.
Objective:
This paper aims at explaining how the community, the family and the school influence and guide the students, so that they learn behavior patterns satisfying neoliberalism requirements in their enrollment to the labor market by applying for precarious jobs.
Methods:
The authoress relies on content analysis and interviews.
Result:
The students’ job histories show that young people can only aspire to tiresome precarious jobs, without. However, the interpretation that the research subjects make of these jobs is filtered by the ideology of the dominant classes; so, according to matrix of thinking promoted by the neoliberalism, these type of employment is regarded as a good job, the best you can get or aspire. Being successful is, then, associated no to the quality of job but to potential promotion opportunities.
Conclusion:
Job insecurity continues to manifest itself in the employment interviewees aspire. The information collected in the interviews allows us to identify the constant change of employment, the lack of benefits, the failure to achieve a retirement or a pension, and the impossibility of getting a job promotion without facing greater physical or intellectual demands as characteristic features of job offers. Young people have been joining the labor market in the unsatisfactory conditions generated by neoliberalism.
