Motoristas de aplicativo e a busca por um trabalho digno no Brasil

a sustentabilidade na era da globalização econômica e avanços tecnológicos

Abstract

This paper explores the principle of sustainability in the context of atypical jobs, with a particular emphasis on app-based drivers. This study begins by examining the principle of sustainability, its origins, and its applicability within Labor Law. It then delves into the growing trend of atypical work in the modern era, a phenomenon driven by economic globalization and technological advancements. The latter part of this research narrows its focus to app-based drivers, specifically Uber drivers, and discusses the efforts made by the Brazilian legislative and judiciary branches to enhance labor and social security protections. In this context, this study also examines Brazilian Complementary Law Project 12/24 and despite its normative text assuring a minimum workday, pay per hour worked, social security rights, and union organization, its approval could potentially increase Uber service prices, diminish workers’ pay, and eradicate their work schedules. The research methodology is bibliographic and employs deductive reasoning.
