A EFETIVIDADE DAS AUDIÊNCIAS DE CONCILIAÇÃO NO CENTRO JUDICIÁRIO DE MÉTODOS CONSENSUAIS DE SOLUÇÃO DE DISPUTAS (CEJUSC) DE CURITIBA.

Abstract

This study explores the effectiveness of conciliation hearings at the Judicial Center for Consensual Dispute Resolution (Cejusc) in Curitiba, focusing on the resolution of labor disputes. The main objectives are to analyze the agreement rate, the satisfaction level of the involved parties, the average case resolution time through conciliation, the challenges faced by Cejusc, and its impact on the efficiency of labor justice. The research also compares Cejusc's conciliation model with other models in labor courts, identifying best practices and potential improvements. The justification for this study emphasizes the importance of alternative dispute resolution methods, especially in a context of high labor litigation in Brazil. The study aims to contribute to a more efficient and accessible judicial system, as well as to reduce litigation. The methodology is exploratory and descriptive, using quantitative and qualitative data. Data collection includes document analysis, statistics, and semi-structured interviews with judges, conciliators, lawyers, and involved parties. Quantitative data will be analyzed statistically, while qualitative data will be interpreted through content analysis. Limitations include data availability and the subjectivity of interview responses.
