It is also increasingly important in data protection contexts following LGPD (Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados) implementation in Brazil. In Portugal, 'comunicação obrigatória' is frequently used in labor and public health regulations. The concept reflects governmental public health and safety priorities across both Portuguese-speaking regions.
