Resumo: | Despite the advanced stage of mechanization in the sugar cane industry, human workforce is still used inrural farming. Usually, workers are paid based on production according to the amount of sugar cane thatthey are able to cut. This method of payment incentivizes the increase of working hours and the rhythm of work as the greater the amount of sugar cane cut, the greater the payment the cutter receives, which results in an inhuman effort performed by the cane sugar cutters in pursuit of better compensation. This excessive work has caused many accidents, illness and even deaths among workers. Considering this, the Prosecution Office for the Ministry of Labor filed a class action against Usina Santa Fé S.A., requesting that the Usina Santa Fé S.A. be prohibited to compensate its workers based on production. The class action in question was ruled in favor of sugar cane cutters by the applicable court. This judicial decision represents the first case in which a sugar cane plant was ordered to cease compensating its workers based on their production, which demonstrates not only a possibility of extinguishing this ruthless method, but also it is groundbreaking for other class actions. Thus, this decision is pioneering, and due to this fact, it will be the basis of this case study that aims to analyze the implications arising from this judicial decision. In order to do so, we take into consideration the specialized doctrine and we examined the judicial records and conducted interviews with both the prosecutor and the judge in the mentioned case. |

Case study on the judicial decision which prohibited the compensation based on produtivity in the sugar cane industry of the state os São Paulo countrysideEstudo de caso sobre a decisão judicial que proibiu o pagamento de salário por produção na indústria de cana-de-açúcar do interior paulistaDespite the advanced stage of mechanization in the sugar cane industry, human workforce is still used inrural farming.

Em regra, são trabalhadores que recebem remuneração proporcional à quantidade de cana cortada. Essa modalidade de pagamento estimula o aumento da jornada e do ritmo de trabalho, pois quanto maior a quantidade de cana colhida, maior a remuneração auferida pelo cortador, desencadeando a prática de um esforço desumano na busca de ganhos salariais mais compensadores. O excesso de trabalho decorrente desse modo de aferição de salário vem provocando acidentes, doenças e até a morte de muitos trabalhadores. Considerando este contexto, o Ministério Público do Trabalho (MPT) ajuizou Ação Civil Pública (ACP) em face da Usina Santa Fé S.A., na qual requeria que a ré fosse proibida de remunerar seus empregados por produção, pois tal modalidade de pagamento coloca em risco a saúde e a vida do trabalhador. A ACP foi julgada procedente, figurando como o primeiro caso em que uma usina foi impedida de remunerar seus empregados por produção. O caso evidenciou a possibilidade de extinção do salário por produção, desbravando caminhos para o ajuizamento de ações semelhantes. Dado o seu pioneirismo, esta decisão judicial será base do estudo de caso desenvolvido neste trabalho, cujo objetivo é analisar quais foram as implicações advindas da referida decisão. Para tanto, tomando como base a doutrina especializada, analisaram-se as peças processuais do referido processo judicial e entrevistou-se o Procurador que ajuizou a ACP e o Magistrado que proferiu a sentença estudada.Rede de Estudos Empíricos em Direito2017-02-14info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://reedrevista.org/reed/article/view/20410.19092/reed.v4i1.204Brazilian Journal of Empirical Legal Studies; Vol. 4 No. 1 (2017): Brazilian Journal of Empirical Legal StudiesRevista de Estudos Empíricos em Direito; v. 4 n. 1 (2017): Revista de Estudos Empíricos em Direito2319-081710.19092/reed.v4i1reponame:Revista de Estudos Empíricos em Direitoinstname:Rede de Pesquisa Empírica em Direito (REED)instacron:RPEDporhttps://reedrevista.org/reed/article/view/204/132de Castro, Janaína VieiraPasqualeto, Olívia de Quintana Figueiredoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2020-07-05T16:23:14Zoai:ojs.emnuvens.com.br:article/204Revistahttps://reedrevista.org/reedONGhttps://reedrevista.org/reed/oaimvchein@gmail.com||reed.revista@gmail.com2319-08172319-0817opendoar:2020-07-05T16:23:14Revista de Estudos Empíricos em Direito - Rede de Pesquisa Empírica em Direito (REED)false |
