Zootecnia: limitações ao exercício profissional

Abstract

Although the Magna Carta from 1988 affirms that everybody is equal according to the law, in its art. 5º, XIII, it is restricted when it comes to professional practice. The professional freedom requires some prerequisites to be exercised, especially when it is about the Legal Profession Regulation, in which legal degree are the conditions established, prerogatives and assignments to the practice and its activities. In this context, the law nº 5.550 on December 4th, 1968, established that graduated students issued by the School of Zootechnics, Agronomists and Veterinarians, can also work as Zootechnist. The professional field that is exclusive to graduated students issued by the School of Zootechnics wasn’t regulated by the normative act. The institution of the conditions for exercising liberal and technical professions was raised to the category of the state interest, aiming adequate rendering for the benefit of society, avoiding abusive practices, being defined as public service. The public service is a state task, because its creation comes from the public power. The qualifications to be served to the professional practice must fit to professions which are required. The law that discusses about the practice of Zootecnics, constituted the fundamental basis to the elaboration of the national guidelines to the Zootechnics Graduation Course. There are limitations about the acting of the Zootechnics profissional that is graduated by the School of Zootechnics. The law that provides for the Zootechnics profissional must be altered, in order to allow this profissional acts in the fullness of his or her profession.
