For fear of reprisals, workers preferred to reveal only the name. For Clicia, who has been working for over five years as Rabada and this year he worked every day on the Dodô circuit, in addition to the Baldoria, he had to face hunger.

“It is not the first time that I work as a rag. This year pay $ 120 and we received after the service. But the main challenge was hunger, the food is shit, we have been here for 17 hours and so far [19h] They have not given anything. And, on other days, we face more than five hours of trio with a stuffed biscuit and Guarana in the belly, “says CLícia.

The experience for the serial number Carla was traumatic to the point of not wanting to return. “It was the first time that I worked like a rag and it was a humiliation, a lack of respect, the coordination of the blocks humiliates us. I am earning $ 100 per day and without transport. Food is shit, daci a snack that we are hungry, two hot waters and a filling biscuit.

And he adds: “We arrived here at 11 am and we are leaving now [18h] with the trio. And they gave us nothing to eat. You know God what time I will return home ”, cries in the rain and with the electric trio that walks.

In addition to food problems, professionals face uncertainties about payment. For Maria, who has been working for two years as a corridor, the main problem is a bad organization at the time of payment.

“I worked on the block of fixure and I said they will pay later, I worked on Ivete and paid yesterday, today I will be in the Praieiro and I don’t know if they will pay today. It should have a review to organize this, adjust a good and worthy value. I come here in the morning and go home 22h-23h in the evening and I am still facing difficulties “, complains Maria.
