After the 1964 military coup and one year after the creation of the local labor court in Vitória da Conquista (Junta de Conciliação e Julgamento), located in Southwestern Bahia state, the labor grievances representing the demands
of dismissed children and young workers under age of 18 years old increased significantly. Most of these grievances claimed the enforcement of the Brazilian labor law regarding the regulation of under-age workers. Based on these juridical sources this article analyses these grievances and discuss the changes in the labor policies regarding the child labor and under-age workers during the early years of
the dictatorship (1964-1972).
