📅 1 Mei 1943 📍 Brazil

Decree-Law 5,452 approved the Consolidation of Labor Laws (CLT), organizing many existing labor rules. Its exclusions left domestic service and much rural work outside key protections. Since domestic service and rural labor were heavily shaped by slavery’s gendered and racial division of work, these exclusions preserved unequal legal coverage. The CLT was significant for many workers, but not a universal labor charter.
