Abstract

This paper investigates the existence of discrimination among nursing professionals in Brazil by taking into account the Oaxaca-Ransom decomposition (1994, 1999) together with the methodology of panel data used to estimate the parameters that form the basis for application of this procedure method. The coefficients are substantially larger in the period 1992-2011, suggesting that there had been structural changes in the wage formation for all cohorts. The coefficients for cohorts seek to capture the fixed effects of age groups. The fixed-effect for whites (167.4%) has become quite higher than for non-whites (119.7%), suggesting that they would have experienced higher increases to their salary.
