Abstract

The research problem of this article is to answer what a reading of the sole paragraph of art. 456 of the Consolidation of Labor Laws would look like based on Ronald Dworkin’s Law as Integrity. It was considered that the provision only fits and justifies the practice in which it is inserted if it is read in such a way as to prioritize the degree of protection that labour legislation aims to guarantee. The research was carried out using a literature review to build premises, and the deductive method to formulate the thesis defended by the study. Considering the provision in the abstract, it was concluded that Labor Law originated to make free enterprise, well-being, and social justice compatible, and that without the protective-rectifying idea, Labor Law would not be historically and scientifically justified. Based on the analysis of specific cases, it was concluded that the application of this paragraph, to adapt to and justify the legal practice in which it is inserted, should be restrictive, pro-worker, unlike the way it is currently interpreted.
