Constitutional Amendment 81/2014 introduced significant changes to Article 243 of the Brazilian Federal Constitution, allowing for the expropriation of rural and urban properties that engage in practices similar to slavery and fail to fulfill their social function. This amendment represents a substantial advancement in the fight against slave labor, demonstrating a commitment to human rights and social justice. This study analyzes the importance of Amendment 81/2014, its role in protecting workers, and its impact on the social function of properties. It involved an examination of Brazilian legislation, academic studies, and government reports, as well as cases of expropriation due to slave labor. The amendment is crucial for combating slave labor, ensuring worker protection, and promoting fair labor practices. It contributes to a more just society where human rights are upheld, and the social function of properties is fulfilled.
