Imagine a chance to work on one of Brazil's most anticipated infrastructure projects while participating in the transformation of a historic highway.
This is the scenario for BR-381, which in 2025 will open a series of job vacancies for residents of the regions bordering the stretch between Belo Horizonte and Governador Valadares.
The opportunity promises to boost the local economy and bring significant improvements to the region. But how will this be achieved?

Hiring starts in April 2025
According to information Steel Diary, hiring by the company Nova 381, responsible for the concession, will begin in April 2025.
The focus will be on local labor, prioritizing residents of cities neighboring the highway.
This measure seeks to promote regional development and strengthen commerce in areas impacted by the highway.
The concession contract will be signed in January 2025, marking the official start of Nova 381 operations.
In the first 100 days of management, emergency actions are planned that include improvements to the highway's safety and infrastructure, such as signage, paving and cleaning.
These initial actions are part of the effort to transform BR-381 into a safer and more efficient highway.
Why prioritize local labor?
Nova 381 emphasized in meetings with regional leaders that it will prioritize hiring local workers for services on the highway.
This approach not only generates direct jobs, but also boosts the economy of nearby cities, increasing the circulation of income and promoting development.
The initiative is seen as a milestone for communities in the region, which have suffered for years from the challenges of a highway known for its high accident rates.
According to Clésio Gonçalves, coordinator of the Pró-Vidas movement, this strategy is fundamental to engaging the population and ensuring the success of the project.
Works and improvements on BR-381
In addition to the hiring, the BR-381 concession project foresees a series of works and structural improvements that promise to transform the stretch between Belo Horizonte and Governador Valadares. Highlights include:
- Duplication of 106 kilometers of the granted section.
- Construction of 23 pedestrian walkways.
- Implementation of additional lanes across 83 kilometers.
- Correction of 51 routes considered dangerous.
- Installation of escape areas and stopping points for drivers.
These interventions aim to increase safety, reduce the number of accidents and offer better conditions for highway users.
According to the director of Nova 381, Marcelo Boaventura, the initial actions will give “a new face” to BR-381, transforming it into a model of road infrastructure in Brazil.
Economic impact on the region
The BR-381 concession goes beyond physical works. The expectation is that job creation and prioritization of local suppliers will bring significant benefits to the regional economy.
During the meetings, representatives of Nova 381 highlighted that purchases of materials and services will also be directed, whenever possible, to local companies.
This commitment was reinforced by Guilherme Sampaio, director of the National Land Transport Agency (ANTT), who highlighted the importance of involving communities in the project.
“We are creating a partnership that goes beyond the works; we want to leave a legacy of development and social inclusion for the cities surrounding the highway,” he said.
How to apply for vacancies?
Information about the selection process for job vacancies at BR-381 has not yet been officially released.
However, the process is expected to begin in April 2025 and will include opportunities in several areas, such as maintenance, security, engineering and service.
