Abstract
This study compares the content of the social representations of the concept of employment of inhabitants of different cultural contexts (Mexico, Colombia, Ecuador and Spain) and different population groups (high school students, university students and adult population). 690 people participated, selected by purposeful sampling, to whom the free listing technique was applied. The analysis was by the thematic content analysis method. The different groups of participants show coincidences when representing employment with different dimensions such as the economic aspect, the requirements to obtain it, as well as the derived personal and social benefits; and to a lesser extent, the social and negative aspects of it. Some differences were observed for different cultural contexts and age groups.
