Vamos beber sakê?

Este paper vai dar o que falar.... :D

This paper examines the relationship between labor productivity and alcohol
consumption based on research conducted with a limited sample of workers who
drink alcohol. Estimation results show that in the case of males, the amount
of alcohol consumed significantly raises labor productivity, with an elasticity of
approximately 0.13. In females, we cannot reach the firm conclusion. Conversely,
the reverse relationship between labor productivity and alcohol consumption cannot
be confirmed. Moreover, an awareness of appropriate alcohol consumption
supports the sixth strategy of the Health Japan 21 policy, which is to reduce
national alcohol consumption by about 20%.


Em resumo: homens, bebamos!
