contents COVID-19 in Latin America: the effects of an unprecedented crisis on employment and income Luis Beccaria Fabio Bertranou Roxana Maurizio In 2020, Latin America was gripped by an unprecedented labour crisis brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. This article analyses the pandemic's impact on employment and income dynamics, and the policies implemented by the countries in the region. Findings point to a severe contraction in employment, working hours and income in consequence of the sharp decline in economic activity. These impacts have fostered inequalities, and the pathway to recovery is widening employment and income gaps between different population groups. publication.journalArticle
