The book argues that wages, in order to be "fair", must have a "food character", of course, but not only that, but must also be "family", and thus be a mechanism of "distributive policy". Wages are highly valued both legally, economically, politically and socially, a value that is, moreover, on the rise". Dr. Francisco Pérez Amoros-España. This is a true legal fiction, because the minimum wage in Brazil is unable to guarantee the rights provided for in the constitution. I was able to read this work in advance and I feel privileged, because after reading it I grew as a human being and learned a lot about the social function of wages. The work begins with the study of work as a value intrinsic to human dignity, where the author's humanist concern with the social value of work is immediately apparent. Dr. Domingos Savio Zainaghi-Brazil. This book focuses on and develops the meaning of different meanings of the term salary, an expression that has been used since antiquity and has been cited since ancient times in ancient and sacred books such as the Bible.
