Abstract

This study aims to analyze working conditions according to Brazilian and Chinese labor laws. A systematic literature review was made through the Methodi Ordinatio method, researching papers in Emerald, PubMed, SciELO, Science Direct, Scopus and Web of Science databases in terms of the corporate code of conduct, labor legislation, working conditions, labor laws, Brazil and China descriptors, considering 94 papers for the final analysis, within which 42 are related to Brazilian working conditions and 52 to Chinese ones. Regarding Brazil, the studies highlight job insecurity and, consequently, point the flexibilization of labor laws. The informal employment is one of the concerns in the studies related to Chinese working conditions. In both countries there are gaps when it comes to working conditions and future researches can investigate the cohesion lack between the formal law and the applied one.
