RESUMO

Using data from an annual household survey (PNAD), this study analyses the behavior of the wage gap between public and private formal workers from the tertiary sector in Brazil bervveen 1992 and 2003. First of al, data limitations are discussed, particularly the understatement of incomes. Earnings equations are then estimated separated for these two groups. Such equations allow us to evaluate the effect of age, gender, schooling, color (race), position in the occupation, weekly working time and other factors on earnings of each category. Blinder-Oxaca methodology reveals how much of the wage gap between the workers of both sectors is due to differences in productive endowments and how much is due to others factors, such as the existence of segmentatian between the public and the private labor market in Brazil. The study highlights the influence of education in the wage determination af both sectors and in the observed increase of the wage gap
