The repercussions surrounding the case of a user on X, identified only as Mariana, reignited a labor discussion about the correct way to communicate a dismissal in Brazil; in this case, the Digital Work Card was used.

The user stated in a post that she discovered she had been dismissed upon receiving a notification in the Digital Work Card app.

The reach sparked questions from professionals and experts: can a company dismiss someone simply by recording the termination in the app?

Administrative Function Of The Digital Work Card

According to experts consulted by the report from PEGN, the answer is no.

Labor lawyer Taís Tricai stated that the termination recording in the Digital Work Card serves only an administrative function.

She explains that the update in the system is used to feed the eSocial and communicate with labor agencies, but it does not replace formal communication of the termination.

According to Tricai, the CLT requires that the employee be informed clearly and directly about the dismissal. “The simple notation of the termination in the Digital CTPS is an administrative record, not a communication,” she asserts.

Direct Communication Remains Mandatory

Labor law specialist Arthur Felipe Martins reinforces this understanding. He explains that the app exists to facilitate access to professional history and integrate information with the eSocial, but a dismissal record there does not constitute official communication. For him, the situation is equivalent to a dismissal without notice.

Martins reminds us that the employment contract is a relationship between people and that the use of digital tools does not eliminate the duty of dialogue and respect. “Even if the company uses electronic systems, the act of dismissing remains a human act. It is necessary for the worker to be clearly informed of the reasons and conditions of the termination,” he states.

For 45 years, Spain and Morocco have been trying to connect Europe to Africa through a project of just 14 kilometers in the Strait of Gibraltar, and an active tectonic fault on the seabed continues to make the project nearly impossible.

At just 14 years old, a boy creates a system without energy, using steel pipes buried in the ground, that irrigates seedlings with moisture from the air, to combat the water scarcity threatening reforestation in northern China.

Where there was only sand and wind at 40 degrees, China built a megacity of 500,000 inhabitants with farms, wineries, and universities in the middle of the desert using melted glacier water from hundreds of kilometers away.

The project that was supposed to be ready for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil debuted with a 12-year delay and nearly R$ 6 billion invested: the Line 17-Gold of the São Paulo monorail opened with reduced hours and is only expected to operate fully in October.

Mercado Livre, Shopee, and Amazon are expected to tighten tax rules on online sales, pressure small retailers, and change the game of Brazilian e-commerce with tax withholding and less space for irregular sellers.

While Japan and Germany lose ground, China surges ahead and becomes the largest vehicle manufacturer in the world with over 30 million units per year, dominating global production and leading the electric car revolution.

2.2 billion reais, 6 hybrid ships, and over 1,200 jobs: the future of Petrobras is being built in a city of only 86,000 inhabitants on the coast of Santa Catarina and will change the economy of the region.

A Mercado Livre customer opened their package and found 32 resumes of people looking for jobs crumpled as protective paper inside the box, exposing names, addresses, documents, and phone numbers of dozens of candidates.

An Indian tree that grows in the Brazilian Northeast produces an oil capable of acting against more than 200 species of pests and interrupting the insect cycle, gaining ground as a natural alternative in soybean, cotton, and vegetable crops.

The coldest region of Brazil will experience very hot weather in the first days of April, with maximum temperatures reaching up to 35 degrees in Rio Grande do Sul, and only in the last week of the month an intense cold front is expected to finally lower the temperatures in the South and Southeast.
