As consequências do desemprego para os rendimentos de reemprego: uma análise para diferentes condições do mercado de trabalho

Abstract

This paper aims to investigate labor earnings losses of workers who become unemployed in Brazil, comparing the results for different stages of the business cycle. Estimates using longitudinal data from the continuous PNAD for the period between 2012 and 2017 show that workers who transited from employment to unemployment and were reemployed during a period of strong labor market conditions experienced small and usually non-significant earnings declines. However, earnings losses are estimated between 10 and 15% for those who became unemployed and were able to find a new job under weak labor market conditions. Part of this reduction seems to be due to the workers flow to jobs in the informal sector, which is higher during periods of high unemployment rates compared to times of better labor market conditions.
