A aparente concepção de autonomia no trabalho uberizado: a influência algorítmica na subordinação velada

Abstract

Uberization is a modern process that previses a more informal, flexible style and activity on demand, that is to say, would be a consequence of the modernization of labor relations. However, evolution in the labor environment is not synonymous with better quality of work. This premise does not yet align when we combine legal issues and workers' rights with informal and self-employed work established by Labor Laws. The discussion permeates the transformations of work in modernity as a counterpart to labor rights. Through the study of contemporary forms of work, it is observed the presence of market institutions that sell a utopian idea of "be your own boss", a slogan that does not add to the reality of the facts and hides the bond of subordination of the worker to the company, which has the power to control, supervise and command its “collaborators'', as they are called. In this way, we seek to bring the study of the burden that this worker has in return for profit, sanctions, and the exemption of responsibility in the employment relationship between company and worker.
