In this book, work analogous to slavery will be explored comprehensively, highlighting its persistence today, despite advances in labor relations. The definition of this type of exploitation begins, differentiating it from regular work. Next, the characteristics and inhumane conditions faced by workers, including exhausting working hours and the absence of freedom, are detailed. The victims of this exploitation are identified, with an emphasis on vulnerable and specific groups who are often the target of these unjust practices. This book presents statistics and concrete cases that illustrate the spread of work analogous to slavery, especially in the urban sector. A timeline is drawn and a debate is initiated in order to show how these practices have evolved over time. Some measures to combat this form of exploitation are presented, with an emphasis on fundamental rights. Finally, the important need to eradicate work analogous to slavery in modern society is stressed, calling for action from all those involved in the fight against this illegal practice.

Renata Ferreira Quadros has been a lawyer for over six years and is a postgraduate student in Human Rights and Regional Realities. Throughout her career, she has developed a great passion for certain areas of law, especially labor law and human rights.
