português term

Acúmulo de funções

português para inglês Direito/Patentes Direito (geral) Reclamatória Trabalhista
Sem contexto. Está em uma lista de reivindicações em uma reclamatória trabalhista, na memória de cálculo da indenização. Neste caso, trata-se do acúmulo (ilegal) de funções que não fariam parte das funções previstas no contrato de trabalho do reclamante.

Traduzir literalmente não resolve esta questão, pois certamente existe um termo de praxe para a mesma coisa em inglês.

TIA
Proposed translations (inglês)
5 +4 extra work
4 Job Creep or Role Creep
3 illegally taking on duties/functions
3 doubling-up of roles (jobs), overlapping of jobs

... Boa solução, Teresa. Obrigado.
No glossário ficará "extra duties" e "duties beyond the contractual scope"
Maria Teresa Borges de Almeida Nov 26, 2016:
Could it be... ... duties beyond the scope of work/duties beyond the scope of the post?
Mario Freitas (asker) Nov 26, 2016:
Yup, Extra Duties Extra duties may be a good option. However, not extra work, as I mentioned below.
Thank you.
Timothy Came Nov 25, 2016:
Extra Duties I would use Nick's alternative suggestion of (being given/assigned) 'extra duties', which avoids any confusion with overtime.

The Trades Union Congress (TUC) in the UK uses that term to describe the situation you are referring to.

Hi All This is a very specific thing, and there must be a term for it in English, as the same thing may happen there.
The employer hires a person to be a receptionist. Then they tell her she will also take care of the traveling (booking tickets, hotels, etc.). Then they tell her she will coordinate the drivers' schedule, too. These two last functions are not in her labor agreement.
This is "acúmulo de funções" in this context. It's not the employee's choice. The employer is the one breaching the law.
So, it's not ilegally taking duties or holding jobs, as this would be a breach by the employee. It could be extra work, but that would cause confusion with overtime or een with extra work within one's role and expected function.
So Salvador's suggestion is the closest one so far.

"suggest" of course

very colloquially it might even be "doing the doulble"

--------------------------------------------------

but this normally means collecting unemplyment benefit and working at the same time so not so appropriate

or "assumption" of duties/responabilities
Note from asker:
David, this way it may sound like the duties are illegal or that the employee illegally took them. What happened is the employer assigned him to do things beyond his duties (roles that are not in his labor agreement), and did not pay him any extra.
