Abstract

This dissertation aims to analyze the importance of the commerce and services sector to the municipalities of Dourados and Três Lagoas (two major cities located in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul), regarding the supply of jobs in these sectors, considering their economic specificities. By means of the historical context of socio-spatial formation, it is intended to demonstrate the importance of the tertiary sector in the case of municipalities that present outstanding economic activities, including the division of labor through employment in the tertiary sector in the two cities analyzed. It is intended to conduct a comparative study on the characteristics of employment with emphasis for the tertiary sector in the municipalities of Dourados and Três Lagoas, from 1985 to 2015, based on the fact that Dourados is a municipality-pole of service provision in the tertiary sector And Três Lagoas as the locus of a development model based on industrial expansion. Data from the Annual Social Information Ratio (RAIS) and the classification of economic sectors and subsectors according to the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) were used. According to the results obtained, it was verified that this became the main responsible for occupations of workers in the period of thirty years. The analysis also allowed to verify Dourados as an important center of service activities, pointing to a greater dynamics and generation of jobs. Três Lagoas, in turn, despite the intensification of activities related to the industrial sector, presents a greater number of occupations in services for the period, showing alternation in the last years of analysis.
