Regularização dos direitos dos empregados domésticos pela Lei Complementar n° 150 de 1º de junho de 2015 e a impenhorabilidade do bem de família

Abstract

Using the origin of domestic work in Brazilian society as basis, the difficulty to enforce labor rights related to the category of domestic workers is noticeable, as well as inserting this kind of employment in society’s mindset as worthy and deserving of respect. The newest Act regulating the activity, despite being the most consecrating of social guarantees to this class, still evokes the prejudice ingrained in our society. The objective of this paper is to analyze the legal provisions related to domestic work, in particular the enforcement of labor credits against family assets. The topic will be approached through the historical study of the origin of domestic labor, integrated with its legal norms, specially Complementary Act No. 150/2015 and its repercussions on Act No. 8.009 / 90, through which one of the greatest guarantees of domestic workers class, the possibility to pledge family assets, was revoked without further discussion on its social repercussions.
