Secondary data from the hotel industry will be collected, such as the number of hotels and guesthouses, types of establishments, categories, etc. In addition, data on the labor market in these municipalities are collected, such as the number of workers (gender, age, race, etc.), through the Annual Social Information Report (RAIS) of the Ministry of Economy, the Brazilian Hotel Association in Alagoas (ABIH/AL), and information on the categories working in the hotel sector at the Union of Hotel Employees in the State of Alagoas (STCHEAL).
