Resumen
La economía informal se ha convertido en una importante fuente de recursos para muchos colombianos y habitantes de esta subregión, lo que contribuye a reducir las estadísticas de desempleo. Ante este hecho, surge el interrogante: ¿Para las personas que desarrollan actividades enmarcadas en la economía informal, se generan niveles significativos en la calidad de vida o simplemente subsisten? Para la realización de este estudio se desarrolló una investigación exploratoria y concluyente, utilizando como herramientas un cuestionario estructurado, entrevistas y matrices, para concluir que la calidad de vida de las personas que se dedican a este tipo de actividades es baja, puesto que a menudo no tienen cobertura de un sistema de seguridad social y los ingresos son insuficientes para cubrir incluso sus necesidades básicas.
The informal economy has become an important resource for many Colombians and people of the subregion, helping to reduce the unemployment statistics. But the question arises: Do people who carry out activities within the informal economy generate significant levels in their quality of life or do they just survive? For this study, we developed an exploratory and conclusive research using a structured questionnaire, interviews and matrices, to conclude that the quality of life of people who engage in this type of activity is low, since they often do not have a social security coverage; income is insufficient to even meet their basic needs.
