The purpose of this paper is to analyze close
inspections in workplace settings – more specifically, the act of
searching an employee’s personal belongings – as an element that
violates a series of constitutional rules protecting worker rights.
Methodologically, bibliographic research is used with deductive
reasoning. Moreover, the aim of this study is to explore the new
paradigm established by the Brazilian Superior Labor Court
(TST), which understands that the employee’s rights to life and
intimacy are violated with close inspections in the workplace. In
other words, currently the court’s understanding limits employer’s
supervising power.
