CLT has emerged as a constitutional necessity after the creation of the Labor Court in 1939. The country was going through a time of development, changing the economics of agrarian to industrial. In January 1942 the then president Getúlio Vargas and the Minister of Labor and Employment Alexandre Marcondes Filho exchanged the first ideas about the need to do a consolidation of labor laws. The primary idea was to create the "Consolidation of Labor Laws and Social Security." Its main purpose is the regulation of individual and collective labor relations, therein. It was signed in full Stadium São Januário (CR Vasco da Gama), which was packed to the CLT signature celebration.

They were invited to be part of the contract, Joseph's Segadas Viana lawyers, Oscar Saraiva, Luis Augusto Rego Monteiro, Dorval Marcenal de Lacerda and Arnaldo Lopes Süssekind.

The CLT material sources were, first, the conclusions of the 1st Brazilian Congress of Social Law, held in May 1941 in São Paulo, to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the Encyclical Rerum Novarum, organized by Professor Antonio Ferreira Cesarino Junior and the lawyer and professor Rui Azevedo Sodre. The second source was the international labor conventions. The third was the very Encyclical Rerum Novarum and finally the opinions of legal advisers Oliveira Viana and Oscar Saraiva, approved by the Minister of Labor.
In November 1942, he was presented the draft of the Labor Code, subsequently published in the Official Journal to receive suggestions. After studying the project, Getúlio Vargas appointed the co-authors to examine the suggestions and write the final project finally signed on May 1, 1943, but did not replace the one published in Official Gazette on August 9 of that year.
