Abstract
The present project aims to raise questions about slave-like work in the 21st
century, therefore, it is imagined about the slavery of the past centuries, of the colonization
time, in which, the enslaved worked in an exhaustive and dangerous way. However, countless
people are subjected to conditions of contemporary slave labor, such as food deliverers via an
application that is the main object of this project. Therefore, it is asked: To what extent do the
current working conditions of application deliverers in Brazil approach situations similar to
slavery? The issue that has been discussed internationally in view of the numerous occurrences of situations of insecurity, precariousness and no positioning by the State in the
face of this type of underemployment. Therefore, it is essential to analyze and put this issue
on the agenda, in view of the reality of countless Brazilians and the constant struggle for
justice and rights that are not guaranteed. It was sought, as a general objective, to discuss the
extent to which the current working conditions of application deliverers in Brazil are close to
situations analogous to slavery. As specific objectives, reflect on the scenario of precarious
work in Brazil within the capitalist system of outlines of slavery, as well as describe the
current working conditions of couriers by application in Brazil. As a methodology, qualitative
interpretations of the social sciences were used, since this is a branch of the sciences, which
studies the social aspects of the human world, that is, the social life of individuals and human
groups.
