The article aims to analyse the impacts of the Administrative Reform embodied in the Proposal for Constitutional Amendment 32/2020 about the stability of public sector workers, in view of the contracting forms’ amplification foreseen by the reform. From the methodological point of view, our analysis is based on data from the Atlas do Estado Brasileiro, atlas produced by the Institute for Applied Economic Research – IPEA, qualitative empirical survey conducted among professors of the public education, and bibliographic review about the theme. We point out to a flexibilization process of the contracting forms in the Brazilian public sector, characterized by the increase in hiring of workers with unstable and precarious employment conditions, notably the temporary and outsourced ones. This precariousness’ process of work relationships, also observed in the private sector, is related to important political and economic transformations that occurred in Brazil since the 1990s, affecting the role of the State and, consequently, also public servants. We concluded that the presented Administrative Reform tends to intensify the process of flexibilization and precariousness of work relationships already conducted in the public sector, putting at risk not only the servants’ stability, but the democratic and republican State rule of law itself, which must be based on isonomy, equality and respect to public affairs.
