MICRODADOS RAIS E ESTUDOS SOBRE O MERCADO DE TRABALHO NO BRASIL
Abstract
The objective of this article is to present an integrative review of studies on the labor market in Brazil, published between 2006 and 2015, using Microdados RAIS (Annual Ratio of Social Information). From the Scientific Electronic Li- brary Online (SciELO) and the Institute of Applied Economic Research (IPEA) - among the 615 publications consulted - 10 articles were analyzed, mostly theoretical-empirical studies. It was concluded that, although the use of RAIS data is small, they are an important instrument of analysis of the formal labor market by contributing information in the elaboration of public policies aimed at reducing unemployment, improving the quality of employment and inclusion of minorities in the labor market.
