Resumo
Nos últimos anos, a preocupação com os impactos das empresas nos direitos humanos ganhou destaque internacionalmente, levando a discussões e ações relevantes na ONU. A globalização e privatização destacaram a discrepância entre o poder das empresas, especialmente as multinacionais, e sua responsabilidade limitada pelas violações dos direitos humanos resultantes de suas atividades. No contexto brasileiro, embora haja normas legais que garantem condições de trabalho dignas, muitos trabalhadores enfrentam exploração, incluindo trabalho em condições análogas à escravidão. Para combater essa situação, órgãos estatais como o MPT e a SRT fiscalizam e punem empresas envolvidas. No entanto, acredita-se que o compliance trabalhista pode ser uma ferramenta eficaz para prevenir o trabalho escravo, estabelecendo diretrizes e procedimentos que proíbem a contratação de trabalhadores nessas condições. Além de reforçar o compromisso das empresas com a responsabilidade social, o compliance permite a criação de mecanismos de controle, como ouvidorias e canais de denúncia, facilitando a apuração e denúncia de situações de trabalho degradante. Também tem impactos positivos no mundo empresarial, eliminando a concorrência desleal entre empresas que adotam práticas dignas de trabalho e aquelas que exploram trabalhadores. Além disso, a responsabilidade das empresas em suas cadeias de produção é uma questão importante, dada a complexidade das relações entre empresas na globalização. Essas violações de direitos humanos em cadeias de produção têm implicações globais em termos de justiça. A pesquisa analisa os desafios e obstáculos legais na responsabilização das empresas por essas violações em suas cadeias de produção. O estudo se divide em cinco capítulos, explorando a história da escravidão, o contexto da indústria da moda, abordagens internacionais para combater o trabalho escravo, técnicas de combate no Brasil e estudos de casos de empresas têxteis investigadas por trabalho em condições análogas à escravidão.
In recent years, concern about the impact of businesses on human rights has gained international prominence, leading to significant discussions and actions within the United Nations. Globalization and privatization have highlighted the disparity between the power of companies, especially multinational corporations, and their limited accountability for human rights violations stemming from their activities. In the Brazilian context, despite legal norms ensuring decent working conditions, many workers face exploitation, including conditions akin to slavery. To combat this situation, government agencies such as the MPT and SRT oversee and penalize involved companies. However, it is believed that labor compliance can be an effective tool in preventing slave labor by establishing guidelines and procedures that prohibit the hiring of workers under such conditions. Besides reinforcing companies' commitment to social responsibility, compliance allows the creation of control mechanisms such as ombudsman services and reporting channels, facilitating the investigation and reporting of degrading work situations. It also has positive impacts on the business world, eliminating unfair competition between companies that adopt fair labor practices and those that exploit workers. Furthermore, corporate responsibility within their production chains is an important issue, given the complexity of relationships among businesses in a globalized world. These human rights violations within production chains have global implications in terms of justice. The research examines the legal challenges and obstacles in holding companies accountable for these violations within their production chains. The study is divided into five chapters, exploring the history of slavery, the context of the fashion industry, international approaches to combat slave labor, techniques of combating it in Brazil, and case studies of textile companies investigated for conditions akin to slavery.
