Royalties do petróleo e emprego público nos municípios brasileiros

Resumo

The aim of this paper is to investigate whether oil transfers (royalties and special tax)lead the benefited municipalities to increase the hiring of civil servants, in disagreementwith the legal recommendations. For this, we applied the method Doubly Robust toa panel of municipalities observed between 2000 and 2009. The method consists oftwo stages. Firstly, it estimates the probability of receiving oil revenues conditioned onobservable variables and, in a second stage, a fixed effect panel model was estimatedwith data belonging to a common support constructed from the estimated propensityscores in the first stage. The results show that local governments raise their workforcedue to the enjoyment of oil revenues, but the average payroll expenditure does not increase in the treatment group. In Rio de Janeiro, subject to more specific determinations of its Court of Auditors, the effect is not significant, indicating adherence to the rules by the eligible municipalities.
