Gestão de documentos laborais no Departamento de Pessoal: Compliance Trabalhista como estratégia de mitigação de riscos legais e potenciais responsabilidades administrativas e jurídicas.

Abstract

Proper management of labor documents is essential for fulfilling labor obligations, preserving legal security, and strengthening internal controls in organizations. Therefore, this research aimed to analyze the management of labor documents within the Brazilian regulatory context, in light of the adoption of Labor Compliance in the Human Resources Department, investigating how this integration can contribute to the organization of processes, the improvement of internal controls, and the mitigation of legal risks and potential administrative and judicial liabilities. A qualitative, exploratory, and descriptive approach was adopted, developed through a literature review, examination of legal and regulatory documents, jurisprudential analysis, and a case study conducted in a company in the automotive parts and accessories retail sector located in Pernambuco. In the case study, document analysis, document flow mapping, and a regulatory compliance checklist were used, enabling the identification of weaknesses and non-conformities related to labor document management. The findings were submitted to a probability and impact matrix for classification and prioritization of documentary risks. Based on these results, corrective measures were proposed, grounded in the pillars of Labor Compliance, complemented by the use of the 5S Program and the 5W2H tool as operational support and planning instruments. It was concluded that the integration between labor document management and Labor Compliance can contribute to strengthening internal controls, improving document practices, and mitigating legal risks and potential administrative and judicial liabilities.
