Compliance trabalhista como instrumento de prevenção de riscos na seara empresarial

Abstract

This study was conducted with the intent of analyzing labor compliance as an instrument capable of preventing risks, such as lawsuits, in the corporate arena. Its importance is justified due to the large volume of lawsuits in the Labor Court in recent years, even after the Labor Reform. Thus, the objective is to present labor compliance as a mechanism capable of reducing the inadequacies of companies to the legislation, guaranteeing to workers an ethical and adequate work environment and, consequently, preventing risks of business activity. For such, electronic and documental bibliographical research was conducted in sites, books, magazines, doctrine, jurisprudence, and legislation, such as the Federal Constitution of 1988 and Law 12,846/2013, known as the Anticorruption Law. The study came to strengthen the defended hypothesis that labor compliance is considered an effective instrument for the reduction of corporate risks. The method of approach is deductive, that is, it starts from a general analysis to draw particular conclusions. The article will approach the concept of compliance, historical aspects, besides analyzing the advantages and benefits of the program in the labor field and investigating how it can be effective in preventing corporate risks.
