The Brazilian government approved a labor reform in 2017 that has become the most significant modification in labor legislation since 1990s. Changes in labor laws are intended to make employment contracts more flexible, in order to create jobs. The theoretical support for labor market flexibility is found in New Keynesian , who argue that flexibility contributes to eliminate involuntary unemployment. Critics, such as Post Keynesians, Kaleckians, Institutionalists, and Marxians use alternative theoretical models arguing the ineffectiveness of employment flexibility to eliminate involuntary unemployment and interpret the flexibility as causing negative effects for the labor force. The purpose of this research isto analyze the effects of employment flexibility in determining unemployment. Pnad and Continuous Pnad data allow to verify the flexibility indicators and the labor market behavior during the reference period.
