The Flexibility of the Consolidation of Labor Laws

The present work aimed to establish a relationship between the Internship Law of 2008 and the Consolidation of Labor Laws in Brazil. It was sought, through the multidisciplinary approach with History, Sociology and Law, to establish the construction of the rights of workers and trainees, from its beginnings until the promulgation of that Law.It was based on the hypothesis that the Internship Law (Law 11788/08), despite all the advances it represented, generated, even indirectly, the precariousness of jus labor standards. Thus, it was argued that, in addition to the intensification of inspection by educational institutions and the Ministry of Labor and Employment, it is necessary to rediscuss the jus philosophical bases that underlie the discourse of exploitation of intern labor.To this end, both bibliographic research and investigative analysis through online questionnaires were used, seeking to understand the representations and perceptions of these interns.
