Resumen
Este estudio examina el alcance y los determinantes del registro de firmas entre las empresas de empleadores blancos y latinos en los EEUU. Los datos primarios se derivan de la encuesta representativa a nivel nacional de 7,645 empresas de la Iniciativa Empresarial Latina de Stanford de 2020. Los determinantes del registro de empresas se derivan de la demografía del empresario y las características de la mediante una regresión logística binomial para predecir las probabilidades de pertenencia a un grupo de empresas empleadoras (no) registradas. En total, 80% de las empresas empleadoras están registradas. Las empresas de propiedad de inmigrantes y latinos superan los niveles de registro de las empresas de blancos y nativos. Las empresas de empleadores más grandes por ventas anuales y número de empleados tienen más probabilidades de estar registradas que sus contrapartes comerciales más pequeñas.
