Abstract: Colombia has experienced advances in labor dynamics, allowing an improvement in the situation of women in the labor market. However, compared with their peers, they continue to present disadvantageous results that worsen according to the city. Indeed, they continue to register lower employment rates, lower wages, and higher unemployment rates. Evaluating these differences is relevant because it allows proposing economic policies to solve the problems faced by women in the labor market. This presentation offers a theoretical-practical approach on the application of probit models to estimate unemployment functions and ATF models with Weibull or lognormal distribution to estimate unemployment duration equations. The estimations will be done with the support of Stata, one of the most complete, reliable, and easy to apply statistical software in the field of research.
