Deputy asks for review and vote on PEC 6×1 is postponed

Deputy Mauricio Marcon (PL-RS) requested a review this Monday (25) and postponed the vote on the PEC (Constitutional Amendment Proposal) for the end of the 6×1 work schedule in the special committee. With time for analysis, voting on the project will resume in the next session.

According to rapporteur Leo Prates (Republicanos-BA), the tendency is for the vote to take place on Wednesday (27) in the special committee.

Natural in processes being processed in the National Congress, the request for review consists of postponing the discussion or voting on the project until the following session. The time interval should allow the government base to convince the remaining parliamentarians to consolidate the approval of the PEC in the committee and in the plenary of the House.

The wish of the president of the Chamber, deputy Hugo Motta (Republicanos-PB), is that the final text by rapporteur Leo Prates (Republicanos-BA) be voted on in plenary this week. With the approval of the Chamber, the text goes to the Federal Senate.

Prates' report defined a controversy among parliamentarians: the transition period for the end of the 6×1. The Federal Government was pressing for the implementation of the change to be instantaneous, aiming at the electoral campaign. This Monday, the rapporteur announced alongside Motta that the PEC will reduce working hours from 44 to 40 hours per week over a period of up to 14 months, so that there is viability and time for the productive sector to adapt to the new scale.

In a meeting this morning with President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT), a two-hour reduction in weekly working hours was agreed upon 60 days after the promulgation of the new rule. Then, after 12 months, a maximum working day of 40 hours must be implemented.

The Constitution currently provides for a maximum working week of 44 hours. The rapporteur maintains, however, that after 60 days of enactment, by guaranteeing two days off, the worker will already be entitled to a 5×2 scale.

"The journey is the total amount you can work in a week. Scale is how you manage this time. The [reduction in] scale will be done in 60 days [after the promulgation], which was the motto that mobilized Brazil", Prates told journalists.

As a result, during the period in which the shift is at 42 hours, workers will have a daily shift of 8 hours and 24 minutes.

The text also speaks of the intention to include in the opinion a suggestion, which had already been raised last week, to bring more employees to the CLT. To achieve this, one of the tools would be to make the allocation of working hours more flexible for those who earn more than R$23,000 and are registered.

The idea would be to have a ceiling of 160 hours per month that could be allocated according to negotiation between the employer and the employee. According to Prates, workers who earn above this amount and are hired as PJs (legal entities) are no longer subject to defined work schedules.

For the rapporteur, this would make the conversion of workers under the PJ regime to the CLT more attractive by precisely allowing companies to have similar flexibility between workers who are registered and those who are informal.

According to Prates, the ideal schedule estimates around 30 days for the Senate to analyze the text, after approval in the Chamber expected for this week.

MEIs
In the meeting with Lula, Hugo Motta stated that he had discussed the case of MEIs (individual microentrepreneurs). To mitigate impacts on the labor market, specific measures will be addressed via the bill, such as updating the revenue limit to fit the category and the possibility of hiring more than one person.

Rules for public servants should also be addressed through a bill. In agreement with the government, more specific cases will be dealt with through the project sent by the Executive. This article should bring the infraconstitutional nuances and forecasts aimed at sectors with different working hours.
