Abstract

Abstract Although outsourcing (or subcontracting) has been subject of great controversy, there is predominant consensus over the concept that defines it. The aim of this paper is to discuss this consensus and point out its contradictions, indicating that the casualization of labour related to outsourcing is not a contingency, but corollary of the nature of this way of hiring workers, which tends to reduce the chances of limiting labour exploitation.Resumo Apesar de a terceirização ser objeto de grandes controvérsias, existe um consenso acerca do conceito que a define. O objetivo deste texto é problematizar esse consenso e apontar suas contradições, demonstrando que a precarização do trabalho relacionada à terceirização não é uma contingência, mas corolário da natureza dessa forma de contratação de trabalhadores, que tende a reduzir as chances de limitação da exploração do trabalho.
