Brazil July 2026 sees 2.2M job terminations; lawyer flags common TRCT errors

Brazil's formal labor market recorded 2.2 million resignation requests in July 2026, per Novo Caged data. A lawyer highlights common errors in the TRCT (Termo de Rescisão do Contrato de Trabalho) that workers may face, especially after the 2017 labor reform removed mandatory union verification. This matters as it signals potential widespread compliance issues in severance calculations, affecting worker rights and legal disputes.
