Pluralidade sindical: cenário nacional

Abstract

The Federal Constitution of 1988 establishes the theory of Trade Union Unity, where only recognizes a single syndicate on territorial basis, and may not be lower than the area of a municipality. This tiered system and compulsory does not reflect the spirit contained in ILO Convention No 87, which ensures the right of freedom of Association, i.e. the Brazil has not ratified the Convention along with other countries. Therefore our legal system does not admit trade union freedom, since the worker does not have the right to found a Trade Union, the right to join a Trade Union and primarily the Faculty not to join a Union. If not also admits the trade union autonomy, since in our land, it is established by categories. The ILO Convention No 87, refers to freedom of Association and protection of unionization, adopting the system of Trade Union plurality. The Trade Union plurality has in its concept to the membership of trade unions to act competitor in the national territory. Therefore the Brazilian legal system requires labor reforms should be initiated the modification by the Federal Constitution of 1988 for the recognition of Trade Union plurality. At first there would be the creation of many trade

unions, but later, people would become aware that many unions have no power and pressure would start to group, associated to the unions on the grounds of the service provided by the College and of the achievements that can do for them.
