Pendularidade e inserção ocupacional nas regiões metropolitanas de Fortaleza, Recife e Salvador: evidências segundo a condição de migração

Abstract

The main objective of this dissertation is to analyze the differences in the occupational insertion of migrants and non-migrants who perform the commuting displacement due to work in the Metropolitan Regions of Fortaleza, Recife and Salvador in 2000 and 2010. Besides that, it is sought to measure the volume, to draw the profile and to know the incomes of the commuters of these two groups (migrants and non-migrants). The central hypothesis is that the individuals identified as migrants in these metropoles, and who undertake commuting displacement, have better qualifications and incomes in relation to non-migrants, being better placed in the labor market. For that, the microdata of the 2000 and 2010 Demographic Census of the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) are used as the main source of information. The results indicate that in the three metropolitan regions of the Northeast there were an increasing number of individuals performing the pendular mobility, and that these have very similar characteristics among the metropolises. Overall, the group of migrant commuters was younger and had better qualifications and incomes than non-migrants. There was an growth in the number of commuting employees in both groups, with an increase in the number of workers with a formal contract, but the informal rate is higher among migrants. As far as the activity sector is concerned, the majority are inserted in the transformation industry, in the trade and repair of vehicles and in the construction, however the predominance in these sectors is changed from metropolis to metropolis and also by the migratory status.
