Complementary Law 150 regulates domestic employment rights

← Back to Dashboard
📅 1 June 2015 📍 Brazil

Complementary Law 150 regulated the domestic work contract and implemented rights associated with the 2013 amendment, including hours, overtime, and related protections. Its passage reflected decades of domestic workers’ organizing against a legal hierarchy rooted in the undervaluing of household labor. Legal equality remains distinct from the actual ability to enforce rights in private homes.
