abstract: 'The objective of this paper is to evaluate the Brazilian Apprenticeship
|
|
|
|
program adopted at a large scale since 2000. In particular, we
|
|
|
|
investigate whether the program is a better stepping stone to permanent
|
|
|
|
jobs when compared to other forms of temporary jobs. Similar to other
|
|
|
|
apprenticeship initiatives around the world, the Brazilian program
|
|
|
|
trains young workers under special temporary contracts aiming to help
|
|
|
|
them successfully complete the transition from school to work. We make
|
|
|
|
use of a matched employee-employer dataset covering all formal employees
|
|
|
|
in Brazil, including apprentices. Our identification strategy exploits a
|
|
|
|
discontinuity in the eligibility to enter the program in the early
|
|
|
|
2000s, when 17 was the age limit to take part in the program. This
|
|
|
|
strategy allows us to consider selection based on unobservable
|
|
|
|
characteristics. We find that the program increases the probability of
|
|
|
|
employment in permanent jobs and decreases turnover rates and formal
|
|
|
|
labor market experience in 2-3- and 4-5-year horizons. These results are
|
|
|
|
consistent with a positive effect of the program on reservation
|
|
|
|
utilities of workers and on their efforts to expand skills. This is also
|
|
|
|
confirmed by the data as we find substantial impacts on schooling
|
|
|
|
attainment. We also find evidence that the skill requirements of the
|
|
|
|
apprentices'' occupation affect the likelihood of obtaining an open-ended
|
|
|
|
job in the short run and the education achievement in the medium run.
|
|
|
|
The results also evince much larger effects of the program for workers
|
|
|
|
who had their first job in large firms.'
