A GIG ECONOMY E SEUS IMPACTOS NAS RELAÇÕES TRABALHISTAS E PREVIDENCIÁRIAS BRASILEIRAS

Abstract

Work has been one of the pillars of society since the beginning of human history, so its dynamism implies constant changes in its structures according to economic and social forces. After the Second World War, the work went through a process of formalization in which, combined with the principles of the Welfare State, it gained structure and state protection in Western countries. However, the new technological revolution, mainly aligned with socioeconomic demands, gave rise to the gig economy, which is one of the new organizations of contemporary work. It is essential to study and understand this reality of this type of work, aiming at the corresponding and necessary evolution of state structures to accompany the reorganization of work after the Fourth Industrial Revolution, with the objective of guaranteeing the dignity of the human person and other fundamental rights. In Brazil, special attention must be directed to Social Security, since there is a proven increase in the number of Brazilians who work and depend on gig jobs for their subsistence, as well as there is great ease of fraud in the social security contribution provided by the high level of informality of jobs created by the gig economy.
