Paulo Roberto dos Santos Pinto (born 22 January 1972)[1] is a Brazilian politician who briefly served as the interim Minister of Labor and Employment from December 2011 to May 2012.[2]

He graduated with a law degree from the Faculdade de Direito Cândido Mendes and later completed a post-graduate degree in economic law from the Fundação Getulio Vargas. He became the interim Labor and Employment Minister after the then-minister Carlos Lupi resigned due to accusations of embezzlement, with Santos Pinto having previously been executive-secretary of the ministry.[2][3] He was succeeded by Brizola Neto.[4]
