Methodology: A quantitative, non-experimental and cross-sectional approach was used, through surveys applied to a sample of 384 people belonging to Generation X. The questionnaire, validated by experts, was administered online during May and June 2024. Results: The findings revealed that 45.1% of respondents were in informal employment, a situation that negatively impacted their financial stability, emotional well-being and access to social security. Only 29.9% of participants reported being in formal employment. In addition, 35.2% of respondents reported experiencing age discrimination during hiring processes, which limited their employment opportunities. The results also showed that employment influenced the ability of individuals to balance their work and personal lives, highlighting the need for government support for the creation of jobs appropriate to the skills of this group. Conclusions: The importance of implementing public policies that promote the formalization of employment and reduce age-related barriers to improve Generation X’s job opportunities and quality of life was highlighted. These measures would contribute to a more inclusive and equitable working environment.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> Josue Paul Guerrero Cabrera Hans Josue Vera Torres Karina Anabella Ascencio Burgos Nicolas Sumba Nacipucha Jorge Manuel Cueva Estrada Copyright (c) 2024 Josue Paul Guerrero Cabrera, Hans Josue Vera Torres, Karina Anabella Ascencio Burgos, Nicolas Sumba Nacipucha, Jorge Manuel Cueva Estrada https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2024-10-25 2024-10-25 11 2 e110101 e110101 10.18050/rev.espergesia.v11i2.2993
