In addition to the difficulties that plague Brazilian society with the downturn in economic activity, high inflation, high interest rates, the closure of business activities in various business segments and the destruction of jobs, there are also the effects of the crisis health of the Covid-19 pandemic that manifested itself in an overwhelming way in various sectors of society from the year 2020, causing the existing inequalities in the Brazilian labor market to increase. The objective of this work is based on a review of the existing literature, to identify how the Covid-19 pandemic has impacted different groups of workers differently, considering gender and race. The results point to a greater gap in unemployment rates between female and black groups, showing that these workers suffered more strongly.
