The debate over labor laws in the country gains a new institutional chapter next week. According to Estadão, minister Flávio Dino scheduled a public hearing for next Tuesday, the 10th, with the aim of discussing the implementation of the 5x2 scale.
The central theme of the meeting involves recent changes in labor legislation. As Estadão found, Congress approved and promulgated in October the end of the 6x1 scale, establishing a reduction in working hours from 44 to 40 hours per week.
To discuss the consequences of the measure, the meeting will feature the participation of multiple institutional actors. According to Estadão, representatives from trade unions, the Federal Attorney General's Office, the Attorney General's Office, as well as the Senate and the Chamber will be present.
What changes for the investor
The discussion about the new working hours attracts the attention of economic agents focused on the productivity and operational costs of listed companies. Regulatory changes in labor legislation directly affect corporate efficiency, control of payroll expenses and companies' operating margin, factors closely monitored by those who allocate capital to variable income assets.
