The modern slavery is a reality that still permeates our society, from which 61,035 people were rescued in Brazil, between 1995 and 2023. Minas Gerais is the second state with more rescues, with 7.098 people rescued. During the same period, coffee farms had 3,598 workers rescued, being 1,701 only in such state. Considering that, the question posed was whether there are more workers submitted to modern slavery in Minas Gerais and its coffee farms than in other states and activities. For such purpose, the research method used were the bibliographical, documentary and normative reviews, quantitative analysis, content analysis and interviews. Further, this work analyzes the historical part involving the historical slavery, the precedents of the rural work and the current nuances of the concept of contemporary slavery. Consequently, the policy is explored within six dimensions: normative, actors, preventive, repressive, mitigating, monitoring and financial. The normative dimension was developed focusing on the repressive dimension, being normatively grounded in the article 149 of the Criminal Code and the II National Plan for the Eradication of the Modern Slavery. The agents dimension explores the details of the main characters and institutions involved in the policy. The repressive dimension is the most evident one, having more publicity, especially because of the performance of the Mobile Inspection Special Group. It is also notorious that the preventive dimension has gained space, through the development of awareness and prevention campaigns, teaching and training courses, in order to provide workers with more knowledge and independence. On the other hand, the mitigating, financial and monitoring dimensions still requires more attention, because many times they are not able to reach out the workers. At the end, the research explores how the development of the policy is in Minas Gerais and its coffee farms, considering the same dimensions. It was verified that in 2013, a project to fight the modern slavery in an exclusive basis was created in the Regional Labor Secretariat of Minas Gerais. The internal cohesion of the group, and of them with the labor attorneys and the nongovernmental entities that acts in the coffee sector, makes the inspection more effective for this sector, presenting higher numbers of rescued workers. Notwithstanding, it is necessary improve the other dimensions, not only for coffee farms, but for all rural work.
