Resumo: |
This work aims to investigate the impact caused by chronic Mellitus Diabetes on: the participation of individuals in workforce, their wages and productivity. This way, it has been necessary to analyze the health status in relation to individual earnings of people with Diabetes, as those who do not have this disease, that is, by verifying what are their differential wages, incomes and working hours. The methodology which has been utilized is the Probit econometric model, and the values, adjusted to individuals who have Diabetes, have been obtained from the equations according to their participation in the workforce, their working hours and wages. In addition, the estimation of coefficients has been applied to the vector of the characteristics of individuals who have Diabetes so that the average adjusted income may be obtained. Differences in average income of people with Diabetes and the contra-factual value are losses that have occurred due to the health status of individuals. Therefore, health has been treated as a pre-determined variable. The analyzed data have been taken from NHSS (National Household Sample Survey) referring to 2008, which supplement has presented information on the population health, being an important cross-section database utilized to analyze health status and income differentials of the population in the country. Thus, the results have demonstrated that individuals, both men and women with Diabetes, derive smaller incomes than those who are healthy, in all regions of the country. The composition of earning losses in relation to gender and Diabetes incidence elapses from the least probability of participation in the workforce. Furthermore, this has illustrated that the composition of losses has been distinct between genders, and has been associated with the jobs characteristics which men and women have held, being the presence of diabetes what has affected not only their productivity but also their participation in the labor market |
