The Regional Labor Court of the 3rd Region (TRT-3) in Minas Gerais has issued several rulings addressing various forms of workplace discrimination and employment rights violations. In one instance, the court ordered compensation for a nursing technician in northern Minas Gerais who was dismissed due to her alleged political affiliation with the local municipal opposition. The court recognized moral damages, though it reduced the indemnity from R$ 20,000 to R$ 15,000 following an appeal by the healthcare institution. Other rulings by the court include upholding a R$ 7,000 indemnity for a call center worker who experienced xenophobic abuse based on her Northeastern accent and origin. Additionally, the court maintained a dismissal for cause for a worker who used social media to suggest they were working for another employer while on medical leave. The court also granted indirect termination to a kitchen assistant after determining the employer failed to accommodate medical restrictions for a high-risk pregnancy. Recent judicial developments have expanded on these themes of workplace conduct and discrimination. In one case, a manager’s repeated misgendering of a trans employee resulted in a R$ 30,000 indemnity for transphobia.
