The main interest of this paper is to analyse the factors affecting worker's income distribution in Brazilian in one of its regions, the Northeast Data is basead on a cross sectional study where observational units are 141 different branches of industry, at a three digits disaggregation In spite of its static nature the results of the analysis ane nobust enough to give support to the view that worer's income concentration is explained by labour market segmentation, tecnical and structural diferences among contracting firms, and diferences in labour union's power Compared to the country the Northeast presents a lower level of concentration. However, mean wage is lower to all labour categories than in the country as a whole. From this can be concluded that low concentration, per se, is not a great advantage. Moreover, estimated demand for labour show that there is a latent potential for income concentration in Northeast's labour market. This is explained by the small number of vacancies and the low level of training required for opening jobs.
