Precariousness as a government of the pandemic: The experience of job insecurity in Chile

In this article we will give an account of the precariousness in its relationship and expression in the reproduction of contemporary societies, through a brief review of some references in the literature on this subject and its discussion in work studies. We refer to some data regarding job insecurity in Chile in relation to some dimensions of employment. Next, we consider the relationship between precariousness, the precariousness process and the emergence of the COVID19 pandemic, considering the specific case of Chilean society. Finally, we close with some reflections on the complexity that precariousness takes on in the present and future of post-pandemic societies.
