Abstract

The economic heterogeneity between states, the various conflicts, health and environmental disasters, as well as new processes of information dissemination, lead to a significant increase in migratory flows. Brazilian society has been constituted by important immigration flows, then became a source of emigration, and in recently years it has been receiving Haitians and citizens of other Latin American countries. We ask: which factors - and to what extent - do influence the insertion of the immigrant into the Brazilian workforce? The hypothesis is that immigrants’ nationality, gender, race and education influence salary and type of occupation. Two comparative methodological approaches are applied - using data available in Obmigra - to test this hypothesis: (i) a quantitative evaluation based on multivariate descriptive statistics and geo-referenced techniques; and (ii) a quantitative analysis based on inferential statistics. We observe nationality is the strongest influencer in labor force.
