Following mainly the methodology of Bohn (1998, 2007), we can evidence that, during the period from January 1990 to December 2010, the RGPS social welfare balance has four distinct regimes, with only one of them characterized as insolvent, during April 1994 and October 1997, associated with the effects of the enactment of Law No. 8.213/91. Unlike several studies argue about the situation of the RGPS, the results suggest a recent non-explosive trend for Brazilian social security system, especially the period after October 2006, in response to the closure of the first phase of the census and the creation of Super Simple. Thus, despite the concern of society regarding the successive monthly deficits, the government participation in the scheme has represented smaller shares of GDP, a relevant signaling solvency to implementing public policies associated with social welfare reform. However, this conclusion does not invalidate the need for adjustments to the system, since reaction from the government are effective in order to control the deficit of the social security.

The methodology employed here suggest the formation of two groups of convergence: the first formed by the states of Acre, Espírito Santo, Goiás, Mato Grosso do Sul, Mato Grosso, Minas Gerais, Paraná, Rondônia, Roraima, Rio Grande do Sul, Santa Catarina, São Paulo e Tocantins; and the second consisting of Alagoas, Amazonas, Amapá, Bahia, Ceará, Maranhão, Pará, Paraíba, Pernambuco, Piauí, Rio de Janeiro, Rio Grande do Norte e Sergipe.

We build a matching model of the labor market with endogenous job destruction in which agents can be in three states: employed, unemployed, or out of the labor force (home production). Workers are heterogenous in their labor market productivity. An idiosyncratic productivity shock arrives at constant instantaneous rate. Depending on this shock, workers might want to leave the labor market and workers out of the labor force might decide to look for a job. We introduce cash transfers to all agents with income below some threshold level. Our analytical results show: (i) The size of cash transfers has a negative effect on the employment rate, but an ambiguous effect on the unemployment rate; and (ii) the coverage of this welfare program has a positive effect on the employment rate, and an ambiguous effect on the unemployment rate. We also provide some numerical simulations.

The impact of human capital investments on labor market outcomes depends on the type of investment.
