“…Several macroeconomic crises, with alternating periods of recession and high in ‡ation, may have also contributed to the expansion of the informal sector -the latter accounts for 87% of the jobs created between 1992 and 2002. 6 For the recent period, the Monthly Employment Survey indicates that informal employment remains high, with a share of total employment ‡uctuating between 30% and 35% over 2002-2005. Carneiro and Henley (2001) and Menezes-Filho et al (2004) show that for some workers, the informal sector may be a desirable form of employment in Brazil; they also …nd that the large informal wage gap can be explained by selection bias and consequently favor the competitive markets hypothesis. This view seems to be supported by studies on sectoral mobility.…”

“…Tannuri- Pianto and Pianto (2002) and Botelho and Ponczek (2006), for instance, find evidence of the existence of wage differentials. Other authors have found the existence of wage differentials, but explain it based on non-observable characteristics of workers who joined each sector (Carneiro and Henley, 2001;Menezes-Filho et al, 2004). On the other hand, Maloney (2004) argues (based mostly on evidence from surveys) that most informal workers voluntarily choose informality because of non-pecuniary advantages (for instance, more independence in the case of self-employed workers), which could compensate for lower earnings.…”

“…Dessa forma, o efeito final sobre o bem-estar da economia não é positivo, porque, apesar de reduzir o custo, a informalidade implica maior instabilidade dos contratos de trabalho e perda de produtividade, resultando em um produto final menor. Menezes-Filho et al (2004) investigaram os determinantes do diferencial de salários entre os setores formal e informal do mercado de trabalho, utilizando dados da PNAD de 1981 a 2001. Os resultados revelam que os salários dos trabalhadores do setor informal são maiores do que os do setor formal e, além disso, que a escolaridade é a característica individual que mais pesa na determinação de salários entre os dois setores.…”
