Milk is among the five most sold products in the world, and the dairy market in Brazil is one of the most important segments of the industry. Small producers have a significant participation in the milk chain, although flaws in the production system and traditional techniques are responsible for stagnating the activity, especially on small properties. In addition to this, the level of education of producers is a determining factor in increasing family income. The objective of the work is to prove, through data, the impact of the level of education on the gross family income of milk producers in western Goiás. The data was collected through the application of a questionnaire to 126 producers spread across 26 municipalities in the western region of Goiás, who were questioned regarding their level of education and gross income, which was divided into salaries of up to 5 thousand reais, up to 10 thousand reais and more than 10 thousand reais. When analyzing the data, it was possible to observe the impact of individuals’ level of education on declared gross family income and indirectly relate it to the tech nology of the system, since of 12 of the 126 individuals who receive a gross salary above 10 thousand reais, 50% have complete higher education, and of the total of 6 illiterate individuals, 100% receive less than 5 thousand reais in gross income. The level of education is related to the gross monthly income of dairy producers, which appears to be related to the level of technical knowledge and use of technologies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Taylor Rule is currently shown to be an important tool for conducting macroeconomic policy in many emerging countries. However, its simple structure, taking into account only exogenous variations without considering the vicissitudes present on the side of the real economy, make it a measure still incomplete. The structuralist Taylor Rule in this article is an alternative proposal for driving the real economy that seeks to consider the strong impacts generated by the functional distribution between profits and wages, taking the participation of wages as the fundamental component for the decisions of the Central Bank.

The present study proposes, by means of descriptive research, an analysis of the performances of Petrolina/PE and Juazeiro/BA in recent years regarding indicators about work (occupied population and personnel and local facilities) and income (average monthly wages), including some comparisons of these data with those of Pernambuco, Bahia and Brazil in the same period of time. Members of an integrated development administrative region and bathed by the San Francisco River, Petrolina and Juazeiro are known nationally for holding a strong agribusiness. Based on information made available by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), it was found that both of them achieved good performances concerning work indicators, with advantage for the city from Pernambuco. However, they obtained poor results as to the income indicator, showing that there is still a long way to go until these average wages at least match those of the respective states.

In this paper, we investigated whether import quality affects wages paid by sectors facing import competition in Brazil from 1997 to 2016. First, we estimated a fixed effects model and, then, an unconditional quantile regression. We found that the quality of imports positively impacts Brazilian wages and that import quality affects wage bands differently in Brazil. In addition, we determined that the quality of imports originated in poorer economies has a slightly greater effect on wages in respect of richer countries. We concluded that, to fight international competition, local firms might improve product quality by hiring skilled workers, who earn more, and that the raise in the wage bill varies depending on the exporter income

Émile Zola stood out nationally and internationally through his naturalist work and the battles waged in the French press and literary field. His trajectory, at the end of 1897, contributed to intervening politically as an intellectual (BOURDIEU, 1996) in the Dreyfus Affair. His performance had repercussions in Brazilian society in different ways. Tributes and demonstrations of support were held in different states, through meetings, acts, and even the writing of poems. The actions of the Brazilians reveal that support for the writer's intervention was based on the recognition of the values of his work. Therefore, not infrequently, these demonstrations were accompanied by controversy in the press (VAILLANT, 2011 in KALIFA et al., 2011), generated by antinaturalist groups. This article aims to analyze the tributes paid by Brazilians to Émile Zola, shedding light on the recognition of the values of truth and justice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the field of organizational behavior, it is generally recognized that job satisfaction is the most frequently studied attitude due to its importance to the worker. This study aims to identify the relationship between motivation, compensation, and performance appraisal as antecedents of job satisfaction in workers of micro and small businesses. This is theoretical-empirical research, with the use of questionnaires and structural equation support (SEM) that aims to fill gaps in the literature when dealing with micro and small businesses as an empirical object. The results indicate that remuneration, work motivation, and performance evaluation positively influence workers satisfaction in micro and small companies. As contributions we hope to broaden the debate on the antecedents of job satisfaction with a focus on micro and small businesses and provide their managers with information that contributes to a good relationship between employer and workers.

This article explores the experiences of Hermínia, a young "black" and "single" woman in "domestic service" in the 1880s: a victim of illegal enslavement as a child through the interprovincial traffic to Rio de Janeiro in the late 1870s, she won her freedom in the courts in 1886 and returned to it to claim compensation for services rendered in early 1888, in the eve of abolition. The aim of this article is to follow the strategy of Hermínia and her lawyers who, by claiming compensation in the form of wages, sought to take advantage of the gap opened up by the abolitionist agitation and its victories to radicalize the demand for rights. The case sheds light on the possible relationships between the Abolition process and compensation and the social and legal debates around wage labor. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Purpose: The study aimed to analyze the indicators of production and distribution of value added of Natura S.A., in an attempt to highlight their behavior in the period between 2011 and 2020. Methodology: This study is characterized as a documental and descriptive research. Data collection was carried out at the B3 database and comprised the gathering of information from the Value Added Statement (VAD), in addition to the consideration of indicators of production and distribution of value added. The data was analyzed analytically, with the preparation of tables to show the information collected in a structured manner. Results: The results showed that the production indicator that stands out the most is related to self wealth (GPRP). The added values showed an increasing behavior during the observed period, with emphasis on the value generated by the company in the year 2020. The distribution of the values generated is mainly between Personnel, Taxes, Fees and Contributions and Remuneration of Third Party Capital, which impacts the indicators of distribution to Personnel (PDVAP), distribution to Government (PDVAG) and distribution to Third Party Capital (PDVACT). Contributions of the Study: This research contributes to theory and practice in the field of accounting. In general, the results presented reinforce what has been exposed by other studies and offer new evidence regarding the extension of the observation period. Furthermore, they help in the understanding of the process of production and distribution of value added, as well as in demonstrating the relevance of the DVA. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This work analyzes productivity and the hypothesis that capital flow does not influence investment in the Brazilian economy. To do so, we present a productivity equation conditioned on the rates of: investments, wage costs, and external demand. The relationship between productivity and investment and wage rates suggests a possible simultaneity, given the distributive nature of aggregate income between capital and labor. Therefore, estimators that treat endogeneity in two stages are used: the Two-Stage Least Squares (MQ2E) and the Generalized Least Moments (MMG), to increase the robustness of the results. We find that the investment rate explains productivity, but capital flow does not determine productive investment. In addition, Brazilian investment is more susceptible to the parameters of marginal capital efficiency, whose fall has affected Brazilian productivity since the 1980s. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the relationship between executive remuneration and the economic-financial and socio-environmental performance of publicly traded Brazilian companies. Methodology: The study sample comprises companies in the Brazil Index 50 (IBrX-50), portfolio from May to August 2020. After exclusions, the final survey sample is composed of 34 companies, with a total of 68 observations and the period of analysis was the years 2018 and 2019. Data were collected manually in the Reference Form, item 13 and on the website of each company. For data analysis, statistical techniques were used, such as descriptive, correlations and multiple linear regressions. Results: For model 1, the Return on Equity (ROE) and Business Sustainability Index (ISE) variables showed significant and negative relationships with the RTM, indicating that the higher the ROE of the companies, the lower the Average Total Compensation (RTM). Also, the variable ENVID showed a significant and positive relationship, where the higher the company's Total Debt (ENDIV), the higher the RTM. For model 2 of Fixed Compensation (RF), the ROE also presented a significant and negative relationship. The Earnings per Share (LPA) and ENDIV variables showed a significant and positive relationship, indicating that higher values in these variables will increase the RF given to executives. Contributions of the Study: This study contributes to the literature on compensation and performance by adding social and environmental variables to the theoretical and practical framework through the interconnection of executive compensation. Thus, it was possible to understand new relationships between traditional economic-financial and socio-environmental factors, while good communication and good governance practices with stakeholders present positive results for the organization.

Celso Furtado’s analysis of Brazilian underdevelopment is widely recognized for its historical-structural approach, while his macroeconomic analytical bias often receives little attention. Considering this, in addition to giving emphasis to this perspective of his analysis, this work aims at carrying out an empirical essay which tests the relationships among the main variables of the author’s scheme. For this purpose, an SVAR (Structural Vector Autoregressive) is used with data from Brazilian economy, from 1965 to 2015. The results show that the tested interrelations are consistent with his macroeconomic interpretation of the growth process of Brazilian economy in the boundary of underdevelopment.

The objective of this paper is analyze the Structural Decomposition (SDA) of the employment variation between thirty sectors of the aggregate demand, to the years 2000 and 2009 about the employment variation per educational level in Brazil. From this analyze it is possible to verify the intensity effect, technological effect, final demand structural effect and final demand variation effect. Was used the input-output matrix taked out from NEREUS and RAIS. The period analyzed showed an increase of the qualified labor, but this increase do not followed the generation of work stations. Public administration is the sector that most employs all educational a salary levels at the fundamental level. The sector in focus is civil construction and services, moving to commerce at the middle level, and public administration itself at the top level.

The history of trade unionism in Portuguese casinos has always been structured by the existence of tips. Contrary to what happens in most professional contexts, wages never represented the main remunerative component of dealers. Rather than a unitary struggle for wages, the union dynamics of Portuguese casinos were always characterized by the fragmented struggle for the appropriation of tips. This article, based on archival research, seeks to understand how the existence of tips influenced the dynamics of trade unionism in Portuguese casinos, in contrast with the hospitality sector, which was also highly dependent on tips.

This article will address the daily work of seafarers from the Portuguese merchant navy at the end of the 18th century and the beginning of the 19th century. We will highlight two aspects of the adversities faced by seafarers: the misunderstandings and difficulties faced in wage litigation and the constant risk of privateering, pondering on the claims and positions of the seafarers in these situations. The main documents in this analysis are the judicial records produced by the Juízo da Índia e Mina held by the National Archives of Torre do Tombo in Lisbon. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Purpose: this study aims to measure the impact of public spending on basic education in the paulista municipalities on the efficiency of public educational expenditure. Method: the calculation of the efficiency is based on the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), having as input the public expenditures in education in the years 2014 to 2017 and output the municipal score of the Prova Brasil 2017. The measurement of the impact of public expenditures on efficiency is based on the technique of Multiple Linear Regression (MLR) by Ordinary Least Squares (OLS), having as explanatory variables educational expenses classified as wages, purchases, travel, interest and permanent materials, and variable response efficiency index of public expenditure. Results: from the statistical models of MLR different regression coefficients were obtained, which estimate the change in the efficiency index of public expenditure when the expenditure is increased or withdrawn. The results expressed that there is a negative correlation between all categories of the expenditure element and the efficiency of public educational spending in the period from 2014 to 2017. Contributions of the study: this work, in a pioneering way, adopts the budget accounting classification of the categories of the element of the expense, thus approaching the study of the efficiency of the closest possible object to which the classification of the expenditure refers.

This paper aims to analyze the effects of education on the income of individuals residing in Brazil and, specifically, in the South and Northeast regions. Estimates are made from the PNAD database for the year 2017 using the income equation proposed by Mincer (1974) and Heckman’s (1979) procedure to correct the selection bias. The method of Trostel (2004) is also used to calculate the returns to schooling both in Brazil and in the South and Northeast regions. As a main result, the theoretical model and its estimates indicate that in all the regions analyzed, human capital presents increasing returns, which are increasingly higher as the individual reaches higher degrees of education, pointing out that in Brazil people with 4 years of study have returns of 2.9% in their salaries; with 15 years of study the returns are 33.2%. In the South and Northeast, the values are respectively 1.8% and 2.7% for 4 years, and 26, 3% and 33.2% for 15 years of study, indicating higher returns for the Northeast region. Therefore, the results suggest that it is of fundamental importance to devise policies that encourage the completion of higher levels of education to increase workers’ income. Keywords: human capital; income; return of schooling. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

ABSTRACT Worldwide devaluation races lead to the globalization of rent instead of profit and autonomy of civil society. This specific pattern of today’s globalization goes with serious underconsumptionist tendencies as self-sufficiency in wage goods production is achieved in economies with a very low marginal product of labour in agriculture and structural unemployment which disempowers all labour. The 19th century likewise intensive globalization was characterized by full employment tendencies, rising real wages and an expansion of the welfare state. A return to such a convoy model of globalization is possible through marginality reducing development policies for uplifting the poor in the South.

Objective: To understand how B3's banking sector shareholders had their investments impacted in view of the introduction of the mandatory disclosure of executive compensation in Brazil, as a result of the publication of IN CVM 480/2009. Method: In order to identify the structural breakage, it was conducted a comparison analysis of the conditional means, with the use of autoregressive vectors (VAR) to identify the structural break and the methodology for studying events. Main results: The results show that there has been a structural drop in the average shareholder return as well as in the growth rate of the average remuneration of executives, with a negative impact in the period after the regulation. The model captured the negative impact in the month after the publication of IN CVM 480/2009 and also in the following 3 days after the regulation. Relevance/Originality: The results are important to regulators and other market participants, as they indicate a change in the perception of market participants from regulation, showing that regulation can modify executive compensation contracts and thus promote the alignment of interests within the financial sector. Theoretical/methodological contributions: The study contributes to the understanding of the effects of regulation on the executives's remuneration in Brazilian financial sector. It also brings contributions to the literature as it stimulates the debate about the specificities of the Brazilian banking sector on the development of corporate governance mechanisms aimed, as a way to mitigate the risk taking that tends to compromise the entire economy of the country. The results are also important to regulators, insofar as they suggest that regulation was beneficial in reducing the conflict of interest between agent and principal. In addition, the methodological contribution consists of using the VAR model (Self-Regressive Vectors) in parallel to the study of events, reinforcing the originality of the research and promoting a deeper understanding of the theme.
