Members of the special committee discussing the end of the program began to defend, behind the scenes, making days off for workers more flexible, thus allowing them to rest during the week.
The original proposal provides for rest days to be on Saturdays and Sundays, but with the text, mainly in the commerce sector, which registers a greater movement of customers on these days.
The main argument is that every weekend off can make these sectors unviable and weaken small businesses.
The president of the commission, deputy Alencar Santana (PT-SP), has already publicly defended consecutive days off. But interlocutors of the President of the Chamber, (-PB), want to convince him that the second day off can be during the week.
Another uncertainty in the collegiate is in relation to the transition period to the end of the 6×1 scale. The proposal that has gained more momentum in recent days is four years. The rapporteur, deputy Léo Prates (Republicanos-BA), has not yet defined deadlines and.
But members of the commission, interviewed with reservation, say that the ideal would be to seek a middle ground between what workers and businesspeople want.
On the one hand, they advocate immediate application. The argument is that they waited more than 38 years to reduce their working hours. The government is discussing, behind the scenes, a transition of up to two years at most.
On the other hand, the business community asked for 10 years of transition. This time, however, is viewed with more reservations by the special committee and should hardly be included in the report.
Therefore, technicians argue that the most palatable transition would be four years. Thus, the proposal would be to reduce one hour per year, starting in 2027.
