PEJOTIZAÇÃO DOS MÉDICOS: LIBERDADE DE ATUAÇÃO X OMISSÃO DOS DIREITOS TRABALHISTAS

Abstract

The objective of the research was to analyze the phenomenon of "pejotização," which occurs when a worker, in particular, the medical professional, is contracted in the capacity of a legal entity.. This phenomenon, relatively recent in labor relations, was discussed in the context of the possibility of hiring legal entities in light of the changes brought by Law No. 13,467/2017, also known as the 2017 labor reform. The deductive method was applied through qualitative research methodology and bibliographic research techniques, based on doctrines, legislation, and case law. The research concluded that, although "pejotização" restricts rights historically guaranteed under Labor Law, it is a reality in Brazil, and that Law No. 13,467/2017 enables the hiring of legal entities in labor relations. It was concluded that the Consolidation of Labor Laws (CLT) guarantees stability and labor benefits, while "pejotização" seeks to compensate for the absence of these rights with a higher salary and tax reductions.
