Abstract

In Brazil, social protection has been built by the working class power earlier than the labor and union legislations were unified by President Getúlio Vargas between 1930 and 1940. By analyzing the oil workers trajectory, we argue that the effectiveness of those legislations depends on the strength such working class has to assure its own rights and benefits. Currently, oil workers have kept an advanced collective agreement earned by the campaign for demands in 2013. Nevertheless, they had to face an attack delivered by Petrobras in 2019, which led them to labor insecurity. This paper analyzes documents (articles from union and commercial press), as well as speeches in order to restore the relations behind the 2019 agreement. The study results set forth experience and struggle tradition, associated to the organizing power of that class, which made possible for them to resist to an increasing loss of rights.
