End of the 6×1 scale: government base proposes a 2-hour cut for this year

The presentation of the final report of the PEC (Proposed Amendment to the Constitution) at the end of the 6×1 scale, reported by deputy Léo Prates (Republicanos-BA), is scheduled to take place next Monday (25). In an impasse over the transition time to implement the new labor model, the government base now defends that a two-hour weekly reduction in the current working day should begin in 2026.

The transition time represents the biggest impasse in completing the report. President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) wants to negotiate that the total reduction, from 44 to 40 hours per week worked, begins this year as he understands that he has already given in by making the initial proposal of 36 hours per week more flexible to the current 40.

This Friday, however, other transition possibilities were raised in a meeting between Prates, the president of the Chamber, Hugo Motta (Republicans), and deputies from the government base.

The consensus among them is that the reduction can happen gradually, starting with one hour a week later this year and then one hour every 12 months.

In this calculation, the total transition time to the new working day would be three years.

The proposal from the government base is that the transition begins with a reduction of two hours per week for this year, and one hour every 12 months. In this case, it would be two years of transition.

There is still no consensus on the issue. Earlier this week, Prates postponed the presentation of the report until next Monday, claiming exactly that the text still needs adjustments regarding the transition time.

Meeting with Lula
As CNN analyst Isabel Mega said, Lula should meet before the PEC vote with Hugo and the Minister of Labor, Luiz Marinho, to discuss the transition away from the 6×1 scale.

"We advocate that the reduction be done all at once. From 44 to 40 and that's the end of the story, without reducing salary. Obviously we don't have the strength to approve everything we want. We don't have the strength. So, we have to negotiate", said Lula on the Sem Censura program, on TV Brasil, this Friday (22).

And he added: "Just so you know, I, on Monday, have a meeting with the president of the Chamber, with the Minister of Labor, so we can discuss how we can... We can't accept spending four years to do half an hour a year, an hour a year. In other words, that's playing at reducing costs."

The uncertainty regarding the transition rule led to the postponement of the plan to publish the opinion in the special commission this week.

There is still no hammer on the law's entry into force. The current design is that the legislation will come into force in 90 days. The rapporteur initially wanted 120 days, and the government is still trying for 60 days.
