Abstract

Resumen: El objetivo de este artículo es analizar el perfil de las mujeres cabeza de familia residentes en las áreas rurales de Brasil y de las regiones Nordeste y Sur, a partir de las características personales, familiares y de trabajo, y discutirlas según las condiciones de pobreza y vulnerabilidad. Para esto, fue realizado un análisis estadístico descriptivo basado en el banco de datos de la Investigación Nacional por Muestras de Domicilios (PNAD) del ano de 2014. Se constató que la mayoría de las mujeres cabeza de familia vivían sin sus cónyuges o companeros. La falta de contribución a un régimen pensional sugiere un alto porcentaje de mujeres empleadas en la informalidad. Se concluye que la mujer cabeza de familia, independientemente de la región en la que reside, es más pobre que el hombre cabeza de familia, y que la vulnerabilidad de la mujer es más intensa en el Nordeste.
