Perfil socioeconômico-demográfico do beneficiário do Instituto Nacional do Seguro Social aposentado por invalidez e suas causas, no Estado da Paraíba, no quinquênio 2007-2011

Abstract

Retirement due to disability causes a limiting impact on the growth of the labor force. This article seeks to draw the socioeconomic-demographic profile of beneficiaries retired due to disability, in Paraíba, in the 2007-2011 five-year period, and check the proportion of benefits given and their causes. Toward that end, an observational, descriptive survey, with secondary data was performed, using a form developed to collect data, with the following variables: year benefit was granted; reason for leave according to the International Classification of Diseases (10th Revision); age group, gender and wage range of the retired individual after disability; period of contribution to INSS (social security) before retirement; and type of affiliation (unemployed, special insurance, self-standing, non-work related contribution, domestic employee and temporary worker). For the analysis, the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software, version 20.0 was used. Of the total of 13,537 beneficiaries due to disability, 62.8% were in the 40 to 59 year old group, 64% were male, 63% had a mean wage between one and two minimum wages, 28.3% of benefits were granted to unemployed individuals, and 25.3% of concessions were due to circulatory conditions. The present study expects to be a driver for other studies in the State of Paraíba, because indicators need to be measured in order to develop interventions to reduce retirements due to disability.
