On Sunday (4), the Minister of Corporate Relations (PT) said that reducing the 6 x 1 working day will be one of the government’s priorities with the National Congress.
“The discussion is about The end of the 6 x 1 scaleThe minister wrote in the post in X., which limits life outside the work, to the relevant committees, to involve society and all sectors that the topic includes.
The proposed amendment to the constitution (PEC), which indicates the end of the 6 x 1 action scale at home and faces resistance from some Congress wings.
In the official statement of the Labor Day, last Wednesday (30), President Louise Insio Lula da Silva (PT) stated that the government “will deepen” the discussion at the end of the 6 x 1 scale.
“It is time for Brazil to take this step and listen to all sectors of society, to allow the balance between professional life and the welfare of workers,” he said.
4 x 3 scale
The text was composed before Erika Hilton’s deputy (PSOL-SP) suggests a weekly work burden for 36 hours, with four days of work and three days of rest.
The proposal has not yet received any order from the mayor, Hugo Motta (Republican-PB), but it must start processing for it Constitution and Justice Committee (CCJ). Then it still passes through a special committee before going to the plenary session.
Congress suites believe that the issue will not be approved if the final writing suggests three days of vacation and four weekly work. Behind the scenes, PSOL and PT deputies already recognize that the project will change to face less resistance.
The proposal changes the excerpt from the constitution that deals with the duration of the working day. The current legislation allows the trip to reach eight hours a day and 44 hours a week, which is the equivalent of six days of work and a holiday per week.
The idea of PEC is to reduce the trip to eight hours a day and 36 hours a week, equivalent to four days of work and three of the week. The argument of the proposal advocates is that the journey stipulated in the law currently contributes to the wearing and exhaustion of workers.
Among the groups that contradict the proposal, the argument is that the change can reach employers. Representatives from the parties associated with the center right argue that the changes in the work burden are directly made between the employer and the employee.
