Slave Labor - In the scales of justice

The National Secretariat for Global Protection of the Ministry of Women, Family, and Human Rights, in partnership with the United Nations Development Programm, launched a public call for research project proposals aimed at strengthening the production of data and applied research in the field of Human Rights—one of the pillars of the international technical cooperation project BRA/16/020. The Slave Labor and Human Trafficking Clinic (CTETP) at the UFMG Law School, together with the Center for the Study on Crime and Public Safety (CRISP), affiliated with the same university, was selected through this public call to carry out a project with the objective of mapping criminal and labor court rulings related to labor analogous to slavery in the Federal Justice System and the Labor Justice System. Once the challenge was set, a team composed of members from both institutions—CTETP and CRISP—analyzed 1,464 criminal cases and 432 public civil actions in an effort to provide an overview of how the Judiciary addresses slave labor in the country. The final product consists of the collection of data from civil and criminal proceedings related to labor analogous to slavery, processed in all states of the federation, which are under the jurisdiction of 24 Regional Labor Courts (TRTs), five Regional Federal Courts (TRFs), the Superior Labor Court (TST), the Superior Court of Justice (STJ), and the Federal Supreme Court (STF).
