What is Conciliation (conciliação)?

Conciliation is the pursuit of an amicable solution to the dispute. In the labor process it is a structuring principle: the court must try to conciliate the parties and may do so at any time (arts. 764 and 846 of the CLT), with a mandatory proposal already at the opening of the hearing. Once accepted, court approval follows.

Conciliation is not a sign of weakness but of calculation: it ends the risk, stops interest and restatement, and brings predictability. The question is never whether a case can settle, but at what amount settlement beats the likely outcome of litigation.
