Resumo

The precarization of work according to Campbell et al. (2016) tends to occur broadly among migrants and is centered on low remuneration, violation and lack of labor legislation, illegal practices, and is facilitated mainly by informal work. In this sense, the migrant worker who leaves a place of origin towards a place of destination and is motivated by several factors caused by a major progress in globalization (Golgher, 2004). Although the precariousness of labor is present to all workers and in different situations, the most alarming is the one faced by migrant workers (Hobson & Bede, 2015).

The migrant worker is motivated by several factors caused by a major progress in globalization and, although the precariousness of labor is present to all workers and in different situations, the most alarming is the one faced by migrant workers (Hobson & Bede, 2015). The migration acts as a transformation agent, translated as a set of social relations, and is retained to enable the analysis of concrete forms of workforce mobility. McDowell et al (2009) note that although many migrants have professional qualifications, they are extremely poorly paid and live in precarious forms of work.

It is observed that large part of the research on migration in the least developed countries began with propositions borrowed from researchers with experience in developed countries (Arthur, 1991). Thus, this research aims to highlight the relationship between precarization of work and migration through a systematic review of the international literature. The international database "Web of Science" was used to find articles that related the terms "precarious work" and "migration", in the period from 2008 to 2017.

This research is qualitative. The methodology used was a systematic review of the international literature on labor precarization and migration. In the Web of Science database articles were searched using the terms "precarious work" and "migration" from 2008 to 2017. The research resulted in 10 articles that were selected for systematic review.

Has a relationship between the precariousness of labor and migration. It was observed that there is a lack of institutional protection for migrant workers because, as seen in the work of Campbell et al., (2016) workers in work situations informal are more subject to illegal hiring practices and working conditions. The precariousness by gender is another negative point mentioned in the analyzed articles. In the Latin context, the discussion about informal work related to mobility is conducive to the conception of a more just and egalitarian society.

The present article clarify the need to expand the issue in evidence because if we investigate the terms precariousness of work and migration in a different way, the results will be numerous. However, when the search is about the relationship between the terms, the results are minimal, that is, with more studies that address the relationship between precarious work and migration, it is possible to clarify everyday events that often go unnoticed among managers in the public sphere and private as well as in society through the lens of science.
