Nota de Pol\'itica P\'ublica: Quanto de produtividade precisamos para reduzir a jornada de trabalho?

Victor Rangel

Papers from arXiv.org

Abstract: This paper quantifies, within a short-run structural model with predetermined capital, the immediate effects of imposing a cap on formal working hours that reduces the weekly workweek from 44 to 36 hours. The central object is the total factor productivity required to preserve GDP at its baseline level, A_req, defined as the multiplicative factor applied to A_t that equates output under the policy to output in the baseline. In the baseline simulation, the 44 -> 36 transition implies A_req ~ 8.5%
