WORK AND THE WORKING CLASS IN PANDEMIC TIMES OF COVID-19

Since the end of February 2020, Brazil is experiencing contagion with the conoravirus, and, due to the lack of urgent governmental attitudes, the disease quickly spread throughout the country with severe implications for the working class. In this understanding, the present study consists of analyzing the actions taken in the period of the Temer Government to the present day and its implications for the working class, especially in the pandemic times of COVID-19. To achieve the proposed objective, a methodological path was traced, from bibliographic research to consultation of documents related to the subject, as through articles published on news site. From the data collected it was possible to understand the difficulties of being a worker in the capitalist system, particularly in the period in which the country is going through this epidemic crisis.
