Flexibilização, desregulamentação e precarização das relações de trabalho: uma distinção necessária

Abstract

This article aims to: 1) introduce a distinction between flexibility, deregulation and precariousness of labor relations, understood by most authors as part of the neoliberal reforms of the last decades of the last century. This distinction is necessary because, in Brazil, labor relations are tightly regulated since the enactment of the Consolidation of Labor Laws (CLT) in 1943 and have always been precarious; 2) present the working relationships that have been consolidated as of technological and organizational changes that typified the last few decades of the twentieth century and transformed the labor markets and as a result, working and living conditions of workers.
