Organizational moral harassment: A revision of normative matrix (Inter) national

Resumo

Moral harassment is the term used to refer to conduct whose purpose is to damage the subjective elements of the individual, such as honor and dignity. As a result of this configuration, it is all too present in labor relations due to the control instruments put in place to guarantee productivity, outlining what is identified as organizational Moral harassment. Thus, since it is an abusive practice that affects constitutionally protected legal assets, it is urgent to propose reflections that have this issue as their centrality, and it is worth asking: is there adequate legislative protection given by the Brazilian legal system to cases of organizational Moral harassment in the workplace? The general aim of this article is to analyze the legislative protection provided by the Brazilian legal system for cases of workplace Moral harassment. To obtain possible answers, bibliographical and documentary techniques were used. The research is also empirical, with a qualitative-quantitative approach. It was concluded that the lack of regulations at federal level makes it difficult to identify the elements that configure organizational Moral harassment, as well as impacting on the effective protection of labour rights.
