Abstract

Abstract: This work sought to provide new evidence on the impact of the Brazilian Unemployment Insurance Program (Programa Seguro-Desemprego) on the reinsertion wages of its beneficiaries, considering the Brazilian rural environment. Datafrom the National Household Sample Survey (Pesquisa Nacional por Amostra de Domicílios- PNAD) of 2015 was used, as well as the Sharp model discontinuity regression method. The results showed a positive effect on the reinsertion wages of individuals who participated in the Unemployment Insurance Program in rural Brazil. When disaggregating by Brazilian regions, the Southeast region had a greater positive effect on reinsertion wages, while the Midwest region has a negative effect on workers who participated in the Unemployment Insurance Program. Among the main conclusions, it is a fact that the Unemployment Insurance program had a positive effect for Brazilian formal rural workers residing in the Southeast of the country, but a negative effect for those residing in the Center-West region of Brazil.

Resumo

Resumo: Este trabalho buscou fornecer novas evidências sobre o impacto do Programa Seguro-Desemprego sobre o salário de reinserção de seus beneficiários, considerando o ambiente rural brasileiro. Foram utilizadas informações da Pesquisa Nacional por Amostra de Domicílios - PNAD de 2015, bem como o método de regressão de descontinuidade do modelo de Sharp. Os resultados mostraram efeito positivo sobre os salários de reinserção das pessoas que participaram do Programa Seguro-Desemprego no Brasil rural. Na desagregação por regiões brasileiras, a região Sudeste teve maior efeito positivo sobre os salários de reinserção, enquanto a região Centro-Oeste teve efeito negativo sobre os trabalhadores que participaram do Programa Seguro-Desemprego. Dentre as principais conclusões tem-se que o programa Seguro-desemprego apresentou efeito positivo para empregados rurais formais brasileiros que residem no Sudeste do país, porém efeito negativo para os residentes na região Centro-Oeste do Brasil.
