Teletrabalho: uma análise a partir dos direitos do trabalhador

Abstract

Law n° 13.467/2017 of July 13, 2017, known as the Labor Reform added, modified and deleted provisions of Brazilian legislation. Among the modifications carried out, the inclusion of the telecommuting institute. This Final Paper analyzes this legal institute, in particular the rights of employees in this type of work. For the Brazilian legilsatior, represented by the majority constituted in the National Congress, with the process of economic globalization, it was necessary to update labor legislation and telecommuting presented itself as an important toll for the future of companies, while suppressing worker’s rights. This academic study is the result of bibliographical, descriptive and documentary research. The formulation of telecommuting as it is inserted in the CLT promotes different interpretations and contless debates, mainly among jurists, union members and those interested in the topic, but actually promoted the suppression of rights. After the analysis carried out, it is clear that teleworking, as provided for in Law n° 13.467/2017, has given rise to interpretations that may result in loss of rights for the worker.
