O contrato intermitente e seus impactos na saúde do trabalhador

Abstract

Lack of jobs afflicts the Brazilian population in the 21st century. Regarding the impacts of Labor Reform on the world of work the picture is alarming because this genre of contract, besides not fighting unemployment, materializes the regression of social rights. On the other hand, in classical labor relations, workers' health may be compromised much more intensely in legal relationships linked to the intermittent contract, given the existence of a higher degree of precariousness. So, the present study aims to show the main consequences that the intermittent contract may generate those linked to that type of contract, because the precariousness contained therein causes fluctuation in remuneration and wage perception. In the first case there is no predictability for the development of work activity. And thus there is an impact on salary perception. These and other factors reflect in the health of worker causing physical and mental illness like depression, cardiovascular disease, ergonomic problems, etc. The methodology is presented as follows: exploratory study of descriptive character, with the use of bibliographic titles in the modality of scientific journals, theses, dissertations and books. The approach to data collection was qualitative. Law 13.467/17, therefore, does not represent a modernization of labor legislation, but rather enhances the precariousness of bilateral labor relations and impacts on workers' health.
