In a significant development for Brazil’s labor market, nearly 1.8 million new formal jobs are expected to be announced for 2023.
Labor Minister Luiz Marinho will share these details during the Caged (General Register of Employed and Unemployed) presentation in Brasília.
Minister Marinho highlighted recent employment trends at the Radio Bandeirantes CIEE-Youth Employability Forum.
He mentioned the creation of 211,800 formal jobs in September. From January to September, the country saw the opening of 1.6 million jobs.
Marinho is optimistic that this figure will approach 1.8 million by year-end.
Marinho also addressed the Young Apprentice Program, which is currently aiding 500,000 youths. He sees the potential for this number to double.
The minister recognized the hurdles companies face in fulfilling the program’s quotas. He proposed governmental support for companies achieving at least 30% of their quotas to assist.
Additionally, Marinho is exploring the idea of a fund to finance job openings in sectors with higher hiring potential.
This initiative aims to boost employment further, but details are pending.
In conclusion, Brazil’s labor sector is showing robust growth, with an impressive increase in job creation.
The government’s proactive steps, particularly in supporting youth employment and incentivizing companies, play a key role in this progress.
The upcoming official announcement and new initiatives signal a strong commitment to enhancing Brazil’s employment landscape.
