Precarização da relação de emprego: uma análise acerca da terceirização e os principais impactos negativos nos direitos trabalhistas

Abstract

This paper addresses the theme "Precarious Employment Relationships: An Analysis of Outsourcing and the Main Negative Impacts on Labor Rights", motivated by the relevance of the topic in view of the changes brought about by the 2017 Labor Reform, which expanded the possibility of outsourcing, including for core activities. The main objective was to analyze how this flexibility impacted workers' rights in Brazil. The research adopted a quantitative approach, based on a bibliographic review, analysis of case law, data from official bodies such as IPEA, ILO and the Public Ministry of Labor, in addition to scientific articles obtained from databases such as Scielo. The study found that outsourcing contributes significantly to the precariousness of employment relationships, generating salary reductions, higher turnover, less access to rights and benefits, increased rates of accidents and occupational diseases, as well as the violation of fundamental principles of Labor Law, such as worker protection, continuity of the employment relationship and human dignity. The weakening of union representation and job security was also observed. In view of this scenario, the author proposes the adoption of measures such as equal rights between outsourced and directly hired workers, joint liability between contracting and contracted companies, and the strengthening of oversight and collective bargaining. The conclusion is that it is urgent to seek a balance between business economic interests and the effective protection of workers, ensuring decent working conditions in the context of outsourcing.
