As consequências da consolidação do teletrabalho durante a pandemia da Covid-19 para as cidades

Abstract

The present study aims to analyze the consequences for cities that may arise from the spread of the remote work system established during the Covid-19 quarantine. The separation of workers from their places of work ends up allowing them to live in cities different from those where they were hired. Using the hypothetical-deductive method and literature analysis on behavioral changes after the quarantine period, the potential for modifying social behaviors and evaluating possible consequences for Brazilian cities will be assessed. Cases presented in these works will be analyzed to assess the relevance that this change has for society in order to assess whether or not it deserves attention from public authorities. In conjunction with this data collected, the research will qualitatively analyze, through examples and real cases, workers who are carrying out their activities in a remote work system to find out whether the possibility of moving to another city is being considered by this group of workers. Finally, evaluating this information collected in the bibliographical research and verifying the potential impact that the change can have on cities, normative solutions and public policies will be proposed capable of reducing possible negative consequences of this phenomenon and extracting maximum benefits from it.
