At the end of the 20th century, informal employment still persists governments? attempts to eradicate it and represents a growing labor market segment not only in developing countries but worldwide. It is evident that informal employment will not disappear but has to be taken into account when designing labor market policies. This study investigates the role of informal dependent employment on the allocation of workers into formal employment in general and on the choice of job search channels in particular. The empirical analysis is based on Cox proportional hazard models and multinomial logistic regression, using Brazilian labor market panel data. 606 $aLabor market$zBrazil 606 $aInformal sector (Economics)$zBrazil 610 $aArbeitsmarktpolitik 610 $aArbeitsmarktsegmentierung 610 $aArbeitssuche 610 $aBrasilien 610 $aBrazil 610 $aCase 610 $aInformelle Beschäftigung 610 $aLabor 610 $aMarkets 610 $aSchattenwirtschaft 610 $aSegmented 610 $aSegmentierte Arbeitsmärkte 610 $aTransitions 610 $aWoltermann 615 0$aLabor market 615 0$aInformal sector (Economics) 676 $a331.10981 700 $aWoltermann$b Silke$0902813 801 0$bWaSeSS 801 1$bWaSeSS 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910297038103321 996 $aTransitions in segmented labor markets$92018169 997 $aUNINA
