RAMALHO MARTINS, Fernando  y  LIMA, Jacob Carlos. The multiple faces of precarious work and trade unionism: the brazilian experience. Trab. soc. [online]. 2016, n.27, pp.93-108. ISSN 1514-6871.

The article discusses the precarization of labour in Brazil in the current context, with a consideration for the historical characteristics of the labour market in which not more than 50% of workers have received social security benefits and experienced formal working conditions. Precarization should be understood as a process which manifests itself in a diversity of forms, without been uniformed or absolute. New occupations can incorporate important rights, which does not make them less precarious from the point of view of working conditions. The processes of outsourcing and others can also be coupled with access to rights without making the tasks themselves less precarious. The article incorporates empirical evidence from research on the service sectors (banks-- information technology--clothing industry and automobile industry).

Palabras clave : Precarization; Brazil; Trade unions; Services.
