O trabalho escravo doméstico no Brasil: relatórios de inspeção como meios de caracterização e o papel da jurisprudência pátria

Abstract

Domestic work analogous to slavery is an invisible practice in the country, leading to difficulty in obtaining specific means capable of characterizing this illicit activity. In view of this, the main objective of this work is to bring understanding about domestic slave labor, seeking to describe the importance of Inspection Reports as mechanisms for characterizing this illegal act, as well as understanding the jurisprudence adopted by the courts and their role in the fight against the practice. To achieve these objectives, the methods used are deductive, dialectical and historical, through the documentary technique and qualitative approach, since the research is based on the use of doctrinal understanding, judgments of similar cases and existing research on the reality of domestic work. Thus, as a result, it appears that there is a divergence in the understandings adopted in the labor and criminal areas regarding the use of reports as evidentiary mechanisms, leading to difficulties in penalizing the authors
