Abstract: This article aims to contribute to the understanding of the explanatory mechanisms of changes in labor participation of women from popular sectors in Argentina, paying particular attention to the connection between the Universal Child Allowance (AUH; Spanish acronym) and other relevant determinants. The approach is quantitative and dynamic, focusing on the labor transitions that make up the two components of labor participation. A logistic model is applied, in order to estimate the probabilities of leaving and entering the labor market for women of low educational levels. The analysis highlights heterogeneities in the changes in the labor participation of women under study depending on the link between the AUH and other explanatory factors
