Abstract: The goals of the study were to calculate the employment multiplier of net salary, production and rates of inter-sectoral linkages and structural transformation of the sectors of the Brazilian economy from 1990-2003 from the input-output matrix.The results can be divided into three periods: the first, 1990-1996, was marked by major structural changes, with relocation of production, value added and sectorial employment, increase of the induced effect and increase of trade, services and agriculture participation in production and fall of these in the number of persons employed; the period 1997-1998 showed a smaller structural modification, stability of participation of sectors in production, in value added and in absorption of employed persons; the third period, 1999-2003, showed a decrease of the values of sectors’ induced effect, an increase of agriculture and industry participation in the production and in the value-added and a reduction in the contribution of these sectors in the number of persons employed. As for labor productivity, measured by value added per person, it increased for the agriculture and industry and a decrease in trade and services.
