The objective of the article is to analyze the contraction in the construction labor market in Brazil and in the Metropolitan Region of São Paulo (MRSP) between 2012 and 2020, focusing on building construction. We observed a strong decrease in the number of formal jobs in this subsector, with an increase in the weight of selfemployment, informality, and in the participation of lower-paid workers, even in the MRSP. The 2015-2016 crisis accentuated this movement, increasing the precarization of labor, not addressed by the labor reform nor by the slow recovery after 2017, which was based on the creation of low-paying jobs. The pandemic had a significant impact on the sector, highlighting the necessity of improvements in its working relationships and conditions.
