Abstract: Considering that the intermittent employment contract, established by the 2017 Labor Reform, has been widely adopted in sectors with high turnover and seasonality, raising questions about the precariousness of labor relations and legal uncertainty for workers and employers, this study addresses the effects of the Labor Reform on intermittent work: between legal uncertainty and new hiring models, in order to analyze how this type of contract impacts workers' social protection and hiring models in Brazil. To this end, it was necessary to identify the main legal changes introduced by the Labor Reform regarding intermittent work, assess the effects of adopting this modality on the precariousness of working conditions, and investigate how it affects different sectors of the economy, such as commerce, services, and events. A qualitative study was conducted based on a literature review, document review, and analysis of court decisions. Therefore, it was found that the implementation of intermittent work increased the flexibility of employment relationships, but without ensuring minimum guarantees during periods of inactivity; it generated financial instability for workers; and contributed to increased vulnerability in employment relationships. The conclusion was that, although the intermittent model promises greater inclusion in the formal market, its current structure lacks regulatory adjustments and greater legal protection to align with the constitutional principles of labor law. A legislative review is necessary to balance contractual flexibility with effective protection of labor rights.
