  • DOES IMPORT QUALITY AFFECT BRAZILIAN WAGES? Victor Henrique Lana Pinto Fernanda Aparecida Silva Economía y Finanzas wages Brazil product quality Import competition In this paper, we investigated whether import quality affects wages paid by sectors facing import competition in Brazil from 1997 to 2016. First, we estimated a fixed effects model and, then, an unconditional quantile regression. We found that the quality of imports positively impacts Brazilian wages and that import quality affects wage bands differently in Brazil. In addition, we determined that the quality of imports originated in poorer economies has a slightly greater effect on wages in respect of richer countries. We concluded that, to fight international competition, local firms might improve product quality by hiring skilled workers, who earn more, and that the raise in the wage bill varies depending on the exporter income. 2023 artículo científico 0425-368X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=572375216005 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5723/572375216005/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5723/572375216005/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5723/572375216005/572375216005.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5723/572375216005/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5723 ESTUDIOS ECONÓMICOS application/pdf Universidad Nacional del Sur ESTUDIOS ECONÓMICOS (Argentina) Num.81 Vol.XL
