Trabalho decente na categoria das trabalhadoras domésticas: um estudo de direito comparado entre Brasil e Argentina

Abstract

Decent work began to be debated by the International Labor Organization (ILO) in the 1990s. The Organization's intention was to defend the promotion of employment in the face of precariousness and increased informality in the contemporary labor market. Try to include the concept of decent work in meetings, publicize the strategic objectives and goals to be set for the effective achievement of two decent jobs. The primacy of decent work will reach global, national and state levels, with insertion in the local context of the member country and combined with tripartite standardization between the government, trade union organization and labor organizations of their entities. With Recommendations and Conventions on the topic, countries move towards progressive formalization, gender equality in the workplace, structured work together with the promotion of two fundamental work objectives, social protection and social dialogue. In Latin America, especially in the Brazilian and Argentine economies, the implementation of decent work would reduce the abysses of social inequality and poverty, especially in jobs historically relegated to non-regulation and non-legal protection. Convention No. 189 and Recommendation No. 201, of the ILO, paved the way for the achievement of decent domestic work, mainly through ratification from the majority of Latin countries. The object of study of this research, therefore, is to analyze domestic work in a comparative way between Brazil and Argentina in order to observe similar and divergent aspects regarding the implementation of decent work. The objective of this work is to understand the situation of domestic workers in the face of their current challenges, such as the low rate of union membership, the growing informality and the tendency towards

precariousness of the category. For this, the methodology used was the hypothetical- deductive and the comparative method, since the general perspective of decent work was

analyzed in light of the unique reality of domestic work in Brazil and Argentina. The central issue was based on dissociating and converging elements between the two countries, addressing the concept of citizenship and the non-universal scope of the subject of law, making a parallel with the legislative, cultural and political substrate of the two

countries. Based on the hypotheses, it was possible to visualize Argentina's greater progress in the recognition and protection of domestic work and the presence of elements, even if scarce, of decent work in both nations. Furthermore, the difficulty and delay of both countries in regulating domestic work with labor and constitutional guarantees is shared. Finally, the methodology proved to be satisfactory, allowing the objectives of this research to be achieved.
