Explorando a precarização do trabalho em startups brasileiras: uma análise multifacetada

Abstract

This paper is part of the research being carried out for my master's thesis in sociology, which analyzes the new configurations of the world of work, especially in the context of tech startups in Brazil. The aim of the text is to analyze the new configurations of the world of work, focusing on the growth of tech startups in Brazil and their implications for job insecurity. The research investigates how the attraction of young professionals by promises of flexibility and autonomy often hides unfavorable working conditions, such as low job security and lack of social guarantees. The methodology is based on a socio-historical approach, including a bibliographical survey and documentary analysis of Brazilian startups. The partial results suggest that business practices, while promoting innovation, can intensify precariousness, leading to greater dissatisfaction and turnover among workers. The research relates to the theme of Work, Education and Society, highlighting the tension between corporate promises of flexibility and the reality of labor exploitation, emphasizing the importance of understanding these dynamics in order to improve working conditions.
