Abstract

This study aims to characterize the employment offered in Caldas, Antioquia, by the use of several variables which allow an analysis of the socioeconomic situation and the employment status of the inhabitants. Qualitative and quantitative variables were measured, and some of them were crossed in order to have a better classification and achieve a scope of the scenario the Caldas inhabitants are living in. The crossed classification of qualitative variables, called correspondence analysis, allows a comparison of the results with hypothetical situations formulated by well-known national and international economist, helping the authors to dare to propose actions addressed to remove the obstacles to economic development in the area surrounding Corporación Universitaria Lasallista. More analysis that cross qualitative variables evidence the causes of the differences between the incomes the families have, and also help to identify and characterize the groups of people that live under more precarious conditions. This socioeconomic diagnosis can be used by the local and the provincial governments to focus their efforts and resources on more efficient actions, aming to bring economic development in the medium term. The Corporación also has an important role to play, orienting its development plans towards a positive impact on the surrounding area.
