The Chamber of Deputies approved this Wednesday, 26th, by 350 votes to 77, a bill on the career plan of the Federal Audit Court (TCU), providing for adjustments until 2029 in the basic salaries of civil servants, in addition to bonuses and compensation. The text goes to the Senate.
The proposal updates the performance bonus that can yield a portion of 40% to 100% of the servers’ basic salary. It also establishes compensation under a special regime that can reach up to 25% of the employee’s gross monthly remuneration. Payment of both benefits will depend on TCU’s budget availability.
The text was sent by TCU to Congress in June, updating the career structure, career entry and progression requirements and the structure of trust functions, in addition to remuneration, bonuses and incentives. The rapporteur of the text in the Chamber is deputy Odair Cunha (PT-MG), one of those listed for the vacancy in the Court of Auditors.

According to the rapporteur, the PL “does not imply a budget increase, in addition to the annual increase in the budget provided for in the new fiscal framework for the Federal Audit Court”. “Furthermore, for fiscal prudence and in honor of the principle of budget balance, the text conditions new expenses to budgetary and financial availability”, records the text.
The project provides, among other points, that Court technicians must have a higher education diploma and that, for promotion between classes, it will be necessary to complete a postgraduate course recognized by the Ministry of Education. The functions of trust in the court are also redistributed, with a total number of 913 remaining.
Also according to the proposal, the remuneration for civil servants’ positions will consist of the basic salary, External Control Bonus (GCE) and Performance and Strategic Alignment Bonus (GDAE). Basic salaries will be staggered into four annual installments, the first scheduled to take effect from January 1, 2026.
The external control bonus is set at a factor of 0.5 over the basic salary. The GDAE replaces an existing bonus and will vary between 40% and 100% of the server’s basic salary.
The replaced benefit has a ceiling of 80% of the basic salary. According to Odair Cunha’s report, payment will depend on budget availability and will be linked to the evaluation of functional performance and the fulfillment of institutional goals.
The text also creates the Indemnity for Special Management Dedication Regime (IREDG), aimed at permanent employees invested in positions of trust. The compensation may have a maximum value of the gross monthly remuneration, excluding occasional installments.

According to the rapporteur, until definitive regulation is reached, the provisional percentage of 10% will be applied. It will be conditioned on the budget availability of the Court of Auditors.
