Brazilian Employment Law for Companies Hiring Contractors
Prevent misclassification risk with evidence custody, compliance monitoring, and litigation-ready documentation. Legal infrastructure — not just advice.
This website provides general information and does not constitute legal advice.
Why This Matters
“Most labor disputes in Brazil don't start with bad faith — they start with misclassification.”
Misclassification Exposure
When a contractor is reclassified as an employee, you owe back wages, benefits, and penalties from day one. Claims can cost 3-5x annual salary.
Documentation Gaps
Without proper evidence custody, you can't prove the contractor relationship was legitimate. In Brazilian courts, the burden of proof is on the employer.
Operational Confusion
Treating contractors like employees (fixed hours, direct supervision) creates legal exposure even with a perfect contract.
