| Resumo: | The study seeks to identify the link between an increase in minimum wageand the probability of the individual moving from an employment situation to an unemployed condition, as well as seeking to provide subsidy to the formulation of publicpolicies. The period chosen was from 2011 to 2015, after a new minimum methodologyreadjustment law, and a one-year impact analysis based on data from the Monthly Employment Survey (PME). To do so, use the propensity score matching and differencein-difference methods. The treatment group in the form of issue receive the old and thenew minimum wage. Those who want between 1.5 and 2.5 times the new minimumwage, in turn, belong to the control group. It was observed that, in the transition from2011 to 2012 and 2012 to 2013, the increase in the minimum wage may have contributed to the increase in the probability of an individual being unemployed. This fact was not observed for the other periods analyzed. |
