Políticas públicas : descrição de Programas de Qualificação Profissional dos trabalhadores rurais da Usina Miriri em Mamanguape/PB

Abstract

Productive restructuring has been happening rapidly in the most varied sectors of the economy. Technology is already part of the existing processes in the companies and it is a reality that has no turning back. This article analyzes the changes that have occurred in the sugar and alcohol industry, ranging from legal issues to the interest of business to raise productivity. From this perspective, we analyze the changes and the labor dynamics that occurred in this sector, based on the results of the insertion of new technologies in agricultural production processes. These transformations have brought to the surface a social problem that is unemployment. In particular, there is an analysis of the policies and programs of professional qualification directed to sugarcane workers carried out by the private initiative, by the union of the category and by the city hall of Mamanguape, Paraíba. These programs and policies are seen as an essential part of minimizing and solving the issues left by technology in the world of work.
