CONTEXT

Why Compliance Matters

Labor disputes in Brazil rarely start with bad faith — they start with compliance gaps that go unnoticed.

Hidden Legal Exposure

When contractor relationships aren't properly documented, you face liability for back wages, benefits, and penalties from day one.

Documentation Gaps

Without proper evidence custody, you can't prove the contractor relationship was legitimate in court.

Operational Confusion

Treating contractors like employees creates legal exposure even with a perfect contract.
