Descripción :	Este trabajo se llevó a cabo con la ayuda de una subvención del Centro Internacional de Investigaciones para el Desarrollo, Ottawa, Canadá We analyze transactional data in Nubelo, a large online labor platform serving the Spanish-speaking markets. Our results indicate that employers favor domestic contractors. In our most conservative estimate, foreign workers are 15% less likely to obtain contracts in Nubelo compared to domestic workers. Yet this discrimination appears to be statistical rather than taste-based, as it decreases when more information about workers’ quality becomes available to employers. Further, contrary to some of the findings in traditional labor markets, we do not find evidence of discrimination against women in online hiring. In fact, women have a small hiring advantage, particularly among female employers. However we do observe that women are less likely to submit bids and tend to ask for lower wages, particularly when bargaining with male employers. Our findings shed light on how differentials in traditional labor markets play out in online labor environments.
