Abstract

The industrial revolution, with all its advent, ended up bringing to the post-enlightenment world several changes to the macro social structure, streamlining production and streamlining its production processes, with the aim of generating capital and profit, even if workers were subjected to this. to long journeys and extreme tiredness. It so happens that in the course of the 19th and 20th centuries, with the advent of constant manifestations of a social-laborist nature, which aimed, above all, to reach a zone of balance between social and individual interests, these issues began to be fought by the organized movement of workers. This social effervescence led legislators to incorporate the demands of the streets into legislative projects, thus emphasizing the importance of these movements in forging institutes and legal principles. We are currently experimenting with a new industrial model, the so-called industry 4.0, which consists of mass use of technologies, thus requiring constant specialization of workers. Faced with this factor, the objective is to bring a historical overview of Labor Law, seeking to understand the importance of new technologies in the labor field and how they present themselves in the development of the history of labor, inferring if there is evolution or if the new technologies ended up precarious. the social function of work in society.The hypothetical-deductive and qualitative bibliographic research are used as methodologies, through the analysis of books, legal articles, websites, international documents, legislation and jurisprudence. Among the results, it was possible to conclude that technological advancement is not always beneficial, because, if not operated by the appropriate means, it ends up reducing the generation of jobs, or over-specialization, creating labor reductionism by replacing man with machine. , thus generating the category of underemployment or the precariat.
