This thesis aims to investigate how structural racism affects labor relations and the fundamental rights of black workers, as it is established through a factual reality of discrimination and prejudice against this group. Socially present throughout the years, since slavery, sometimes in a routine and unconscious way, this axiom has directly influenced the way in which black workers are inserted (or not) in labor relations, a fact evidenced by statistics presented by main research agencies in the country. Although the exclusion of the black population from labor relations is proven, few parallel studies show how slavery directly affected the insertion of blacks in the labor environment, above all because of the way in which abolition occurred in Brazil. It is necessary, therefore, to use deductive methods and statistical data to highlight the immense historical discrepancy between the number of blacks and whites in the labor market, especially in leadership positions, where there is practically no representation of black people. Although numerous national and international norms prohibit discrimination, the numbers demonstrate that the prohibition of discrimination alone has been insufficient to guarantee the inclusion of black people in the workplace. Thus, affirmative action proves to be an excellent instrument of inclusion in this context. Similar to the prohibition of discrimination, the provision for the use of affirmative action is also present in Brazilian and international legislation. A good example of the effectiveness and efficiency of affirmative action in the inclusion of minorities is the guarantee of university places for blacks, which has presented satisfactory results in the almost years it has been in effect. The challenge, therefore, is to present possible solutions to combat structural racism in labor relations and to guarantee the fundamental rights of black workers by means of affirmative action to ensure the effectiveness and efficiency of these measures
