This paper is based on researches conducted at CESIT/Unicamp and brings to the light the need to adopt a broad concept for outsourcing, covering its internal and external aspects, the ones that are expressed and also the mocked ones. We discuss about the need to develop a methodology that allows a better and broader way to measure this form of hiring. Therefore, we approach some forms of measurement, suggesting a combination of initiatives to map them. We also discuss the impacts of outsourcing as approved by Brazil’s Labor Reform, with no limits to any activity, which enlarges the difficulties to measure it, creating even bigger challenges for developing this methodology. From a set of instruments collected between the years 2016 and 2019, we analyze how outsourcing has been treated by this instruments, which suggests that unrestricted outsourcing and their enlargement with temporary contracts, has been absorbed in these negotiations.
