O vínculo empregatício do pastor evangélico.

Abstract

The gradual number of evangelical churches in Brazil being born, therefore, raises the question whether or not there is an employment relationship between religious workers and the religious institutions to which they belong. Religious service is certainly a trail for those who operate labor law today in Brazil. Our domestic jurisprudence is inclined to expose divergences of positions, thus making it necessary to study the material case to verify the requirements of the employment relationship. The requirements of the idea of an employee contained in the CLT certainly bring great value to the analysis if in a working relationship between the evangelical pastor and the religious institution, the employment contract should be obliged to be executed. Thus, the focus of this work is to analyze whether or not there is a chance of recognizing the employment bond between these entities. After the present study, it appears that the employment link between the evangelical pastor and the institution to which he serves is made when his requirements exist or when religious work is distorted by the religious institution, thus requiring the state interference.
