RESUMO:

This study intends to analyze the wage gap between men and women in the red ceramic industry in Brazil in the years 2012, 2017 and 2021. Therefore, the main objective of this research is to identify the wage gap between formal workers in the Brazilian red ceramic industry , analyzing inequalities by macro-region, using microdata from the Continuous National Household Sample Survey – PNAD-C, from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE). Methodologically, this work initially made estimates using Ordinary Least Squares (OLS), later, used the Oaxaca-Blinder (1973) yield decomposition methodology, and, finally, made use of the recent red influence functions (RIF) regression method formulated by Firpo et al. (2007). The results indicate that there is a wage difference between workers in the Brazilian red ceramic industry, where this greater gap is in higher wages. The estimates also show that income is impacted by the level of education, where workers with higher education have higher incomes than illiterate workers in the sector. Furthermore, the study highlights inequality in income between men and women, where the results suggest the existence of possible discrimination against women. Finally, it is noted that the largest significant wage differential is to the detriment of the Northeast macro-region, with these inequalities present in all years of the analyzed period, however, the estimates of the South macro-region showed the lowest wage disparity when compared to the earnings of workers residing in the Southeast macro-region, which was used as the base variable for comparison.
