Spontaneous retirement and their effects on employment contract

Abstract

The effects of spontaneous retirement employee in the employment contract trigger legal disputes and come causing controversies in Brazilian courts. Spontaneous retirement, according to a recent decision of the Supreme Court, does not imply termination of the employment contract, providing, yes, the permanence of regular exercise the duties of the employee without any change in the contract it has with your employer. It follows therefore that Article 453, caput, of the Labor Code, does not lend itself to the discipline of the effects of retirement on the continuity of the contract, which requires a more extensive interpretation of matter and its effects, especially because the rule of law can not be considered in isolation, especially when there are other legal provisions that guide the subject.
