O trabalho doméstico enquanto serviço essencial no contexto da pandemia do covid- 19 no Brasil: uma herança da dominação e violência interseccionais decorrentes da escravidão

Abstract

The present work aims to analyze how the inclusion of domestic work as essential through state decrees, in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil, reproduces the logic of domination and intersectional violence of slavery over black women. This analysis aims to present the legislation on domestic work during slavery in Brazil and its historical consequences, moving on to study the legislative evolution of domestic work in Brazil from the perspective of intersectionality resulting from the legislation of the slavery period. Lastly, it intends to highlight the inclusion of domestic work as essential, through state decrees of the COVID-19 pandemic, as a legacy of slavery, through sociodemographic data of PNAD COVID-19. This research is characterized as basic and exploratory, with bibliographic and documentary survey technique, based on material already prepared, consisting of literature on the subject, in order

to obtain information on domestic work in slavery. Furthermore, in order to present the past- future relationship that includes the referred theme, the quantitative analysis of reports produced by research institutes, which examined data on the working conditions of women in Brazilian social formation, will be used as a complementary technique, especially in the pandemic period, considering race and gender markers.
