Este artículo estudia los factores socioeconómicos asociados con la exclusión laboral y educativa de los jóvenes colombianos entre 14 y 28 años (nini), y el efecto potencial de la pandemia del COVID-19. Usando datos de la Gran Encuesta Integrada de Hogares, se estiman modelos de elección discreta para conocer los factores que afectan la probabilidad de ser nini. Los resultados muestran que la probabilidad de ser nini es mayor conforme aumenta la edad y el tamaño del hogar, y disminuye a medida que aumenta el nivel socioeconómico y el nivel educativo. Las personas que enfrentaron problemas laborales y de salud mental durante la pandemia tienen mayor probabilidad de ser nini.
This paper studies the socioeconomic factors associated with labour and educational exclusion of young Colombians between 14 and 28 years of age (NEET) and the potential effect of the COVID-19 pandemic. Using data from the Gran Encuesta Integrada de Hogares, discrete choice models are estimated to determine the factors affecting NEET probability. Results show that the likelihood of being NEET increases as age and household size increase and decreases as socioeconomic status and educational level increase. Persons who faced labour and mental health problems during the pandemic are more likely to be NEET.
