There are criticisms from the Minister of Labor and Employment, Luiz Marinho (PT), about the operating conditions of application drivers. In an interview with Power360on May 6, he associated the term “uberization” the precariousness of activities related to applications.
“The story of ‘uberization’ –it even became a synonym, it’s a company– is exactly the logic of precariousness, of the super exploitation of people in relation to a new technology. This is nonsense. This is unacceptable. What we need is for technologies to be available to humanity, favoring higher remuneration, greater comfort”he said.

It is necessary to talk about working hours, so as not to have a strenuous journey, to avoid accidents, illnesses and to have a healthy environment in this work”.
