The economic reality of rural workers in the post-COVID-19 era: impacts, resilience, and prospects. uct [online]. 2024, vol.28, n.124, pp.7-16. Epub 27-Jan-2025.

The study aims to determine whether there was a significant impact of COVID-19 on the quality of life of workers in rural areas. The population of this area is at a complete disadvantage due to a series of historical situations that have not been solved to date, adding to the uncertain outlook left by the pandemic. Logistic regression econometric analysis was used, considering the dataset for the years 2020 and 2022 as the time axis. The results obtained indicated that the delicate economic situation of workers is due to the few possibilities for development granted by working conditions, for which it is necessary to carry out programs focused on meeting the most important needs of the population, in addition to seeking to generate fair sources of employment and promote rural entrepreneurship.
