The president of the Chamber of Deputies, Hugo Motta (Republicanos-PB), stated this Tuesday (24) that deputy Paulo Azi (União-BA) will have until March to present the admissibility opinion of the Proposed Amendment to the Constitution (PEC) which provides for the end of the 6×1 work schedule at the Constitution and Justice Commission (CCJ).
Analysis at the CCJ is the first formal stage in the processing of a PEC in the Chamber. At this stage, deputies only assess whether the proposal complies with constitutional requirements. If the collegiate considers the text admissible, a special commission will be created to discuss the merits and prepare the final version of the proposal.
When commenting on the topic, Hugo Motta related the debate to the transformation of the job market in the face of technological advances and similar discussions in other countries. According to him, there is a growing demand from workers for more time for family life, health care and leisure.
“We need to guarantee workers the ability to say that it is fair, given the advancement of technology and a global discussion, to demand more quality time with family, health and leisure”, he stated.
The president of the Chamber defended that the issue be treated with institutional responsibility. For him, the process should not be conducted under ideological pressure or guided by electoral interests.
