Ensaio sobre a uberização e a degradação do trabalho no Brasil: por uma construção coletiva da parametrização algorítmica

Abstract

The Fourth Industrial Revolution or Revolution 4.0 brought technological innovations capable of changing the way services are produced and provided, directly influencing the world of work. The applications allow companies to establish a channel of direct contact with both their employers and their workers, making the cell phone a key instrument for carrying out the daily tasks of the citizen, which may even include work activities. In this way, this new era brought harm to the maintenance of minimum working conditions, as protected by the Federal Constitution of 88 and the Consolidation of Labor Laws, since now artificial intelligence through algorithms has removed the need for a human being to directly manage the process productive by transferring this activity to computers. This new business model was marked globally by Uber, the company that gained the fastest worldwide projection in this context, hence uberization. Therefore, based on the bibliography, this essay seeks to develop the potential of a collective construction of the parameterization of Uber's algorithms, that is, to understand which way Collective Labor Law should follow in order to update itself and be present in this moment the world is going through. For practical purposes, this essay finally develops a proposal for the realization of collective construction, which involves company and workers, from the perspective of the principle of proportionality and in the light of current legislation.
