WORK ENVIRONMENT IN THE CONTEXT OF THE PANDEMIA: THE NEW PARADIGM OF WORKER PARTICIPATION
Brazil is one of the countries in which there is still one of the highest percentages of deaths at work. In view of this initial data, it is possible to perceive the urgency of dealing with the work environment and its possibilities without procedural rights, as well as the mechanisms for worker participation in policies for the prevention and protection of accidents at work, especially in times of pandemic. It should be borne in mind that the work environment is the object to be studied and it is from there that the other problems of the study will emerge, insofar as both the procedural accountability and the means of participation of the worker are directly linked to the care that must be offered to the place where labor relations are developed. In this way, some legal and principiological bases that protect the work environment will be eliminated, but also peculiarities of the moment when one observes the spread of one of the most lethal viruses in the history of mankind, a context that will allow the examination in the way that care with the labor environment, it has a direct impact on procedural responsibility and on the entire worker protection system. In addition, the participation of workers through performance in our legislation will certainly help in the development of a healthy work environment, avoiding the proliferation of lawsuits based on models of awareness among the workers, which, even if compensated due to factors of risk and accidents, should be directly part of the formation of preventive policies, avoiding, in the sociological spectrum, the invisibility of the workers' body in face of different nuances experienced in the preventive context.
