Impacto da reforma trabalhista na gestão de pessoas: análise de como as mudanças legislativas influenciam a gestão de recursos humanos e relações de trabalho

Abstract

The Labor Reform, implemented in Brazil through Law No. 13,467/2017, introduced significant changes to labor legislation with the aim of modernizing labor relations by making regulations more flexible and expanding the possibilities for direct negotiations between employers and employees. Among the main changes are the precedence of negotiated agreements over statutory provisions, the regulation of intermittent work, and the expansion of outsourcing practices—measures designed to meet the demands of an increasingly dynamic and competitive market. This article aimed to investigate the impacts of the Labor Reform on labor relations and human resource management in Brazil. Through a qualitative, exploratory, and descriptive research approach, a literature review was conducted using major research platforms such as Scielo and Google Scholar, among others. New forms of employment contracts, such as intermittent work, while aligning the workforce with market demands, also raise concerns about workers’ financial instability and demotivation. Although the Labor Reform has brought advantages in terms of business competitiveness, it also imposes the need for careful human resource management—one that strives to create a fair work environment, values employee well-being, and promotes a balance between efficiency and social justice.
