The workers' fight for the reduction of working time has declined internationally. In Brazil the situation becomes even more problematic. The aim of this paper is to show that the Brazilian trade unions have not acquired the key experience in this kind of fight. First, I summarise the different stages of the reduction of working time in Brazil and the role of trade unions in this process. After that, I discuss the prospects for leisure in a society where a new reduction of the working time is unlikely and informal labour is becoming more and more common
