Eficácia dos direitos fundamentais de liberdade individual nas relações jurídicas trabalhistas

Abstract

This thesis analyzes the broad doctrinal and jurisprudential adherence in Brazil to the thesis of the horizontal direct efficacy of fundamental rights (Drittwirkung) in labor relations and discusses the possibility and consequences of adopting a different understanding. The examination of the question starts with the recognition of the objective dimension of fundamental rights and its corollary radiant effect in view of the phenomenon of the constitutionalization of the legal system, debated in the States of Law since the second half of the twentieth century. Trying to reject the results that may be considered acceptable and correct due to the prevalence of political or ideological conceptions, but that disregard its construction and necessary theoretical adequacy, the research is based on the dogmatics of fundamental rights and not legal-labor dogmatics. Therefore, it does not justify the protection of the worker in the legal position that he holds before the employer, but in the state duty of non-intervention or action to prevent abuses, discrimination and illegalities in labor relations in which there is violation of individual freedoms.
