Trabalhador migrante indocumentado

This study investigated the status of undocumented migrant workers in Brazil in face of the Inter-American Human Rights System (IAHRS). The guiding question was: is the legal protection of undocumented migrant workers in Brazil compatible with the obligations imposed on the State for its integration into the Inter-American Human Rights System? First, the international legal context regarding the study object was analyzed; then undocumented migrants were investigated in the national context, emphasizing the local legal order; finally, possible consequences for the current situation were listed, but also solutions to address the issue concerned. It is concluded that undocumented migrants do not have access to all labor rights in Brazil, and this may even lead to international accountability.
