This paper examines the contingent of people with second job in the Metropolitan Region of Salvador (RMS). Using data of the Employment and Unemployment Research of the Metropolitan Region of Salvador (PED/RMS), this paper studies the income formation of second job, trying to establish under the econometric point of view the principles, determinants and restrictions that lead these workers to look for a second occupation in the labor market. Besides that, this essay also studied the additional participation of workers in the labor force, through a logit model, as means of distinguish the main elements that influence workers decision to seek a second insertion in the labor market. The econometric results reveal that women, family heads, and wagers are more prone to look for a second occupation in the labor market, basically to complement lower wages in their principal jobs. As a matter of fact, this additional source of income is the more important element that lead workers to get a second job in the labor market. Meanwhile, the workers' decision to participate in the labor force by the second time is mainly due to effort (measured by time applied to work) they are able to offer in this second occupation.
