22 Dec 2025 Renuka Vale do Ivaí S.A. (em recuperação judicial)Renuka Vale do Ivaí: sugar mill placed on the ‘Lista Suja’ over slave-like labour Other
The Ministério do Trabalho e Emprego (MTE, Ministry of Labour and Employment) entered the sugar mill Renuka Vale do Ivaí S.A. (in judicial reorganisation) in the register of employers that have subjected workers to conditions analogous to slavery (Cadastro de Empregadores, the ‘Lista Suja’). The entry is based on a 2025 labour inspection at the sugar cane mill in São Pedro do Ivaí (Paraná) involving 57 workers; the final administrative decision was taken on 22 December 2025 and the entry was made in the update of 6 April 2026.
Sugar industry companies must continuously check working conditions at their sites, because an entry on the ‘Lista Suja’ is published by name.
