Jones Manoel wrote that, according to a report from the newspaper O POVO, executives from Rede Globo met with Flávio Bolsonaro hours before a hearing to discuss the possible legalization of bets, which were banned by the Lula government. According to the report, the ban affected the financial interests of Grupo Globo, which would operate in this market through MGM Bet and advertising contracts. Manoel stated that the meeting should be debated because, while workers depended on the maintenance of their rights, executives from the network would have discussed economic interests and changes in labor legislation with a presidential candidate shortly before interviewing him. He also said that Globo was neither progressive nor defended democracy, but rather the interests of the elite and imperialism, and questioned how the financial interests of large companies could influence political maneuvering and journalistic coverage. #Globo #Política #Brasil (translated)

"From there we can allocate the extra 5% available to the workers," added Miguel Pinto Luz, noting that the Government expects to be in a position to "launch at the beginning of January" the Public Offering for Sale (OPV) reserved for the workers. #TAP #Privatização #OpçãoPública (translated)

Jones Manoel stated that the end of the 6x1 shift had already been approved, with two days of rest per week and a workload of up to 40 hours, without salary reduction. He said that Flávio Bolsonaro had signaled to entrepreneurs that, if elected president, he would advocate for changes to this rule. According to Manoel, the proposal supported by Bolsonaro provides for contracts based on hours worked, which could reduce the remuneration of those who worked fewer hours and eliminate the right to proportional vacation and 13th salary. He added that the two days off would not be guaranteed. Manoel also accused Bolsonaro of governing for the rich and large companies and wanting to hand Brazil over to the United States. In the end, he urged workers to mobilize against the senator's candidacy and defend power in the hands of the workers. #Trabalhadores #DireitosTrabalhistas #Eleições2024 (translated)

Jones Manoel stated that the National Congress enacted a constitutional amendment that created special retirement rules for community health agents (ACS) and endemic disease control agents (ACE). He said that during his pre-campaign, he contributed to mobilizing the categories in defense of the measure. Manoel also reported that his mandate program provided for a national minimum wage, public competitions, job stability, and career plans for ACS and ACE. According to him, in addition to a decent retirement, better working conditions were necessary. The author said he intended to give more space in Congress to the struggles of workers in Brazil in the following year. #SaúdePública #Aposentadoria #Trabalhadores (translated)

Lula stated that the day represented a victory for democracy and described the end of the 6x1 scale as a civilizational achievement. He said that the measure met the will of people who took to the streets — among them women, men, workers, teenagers, and students — and that the change added a page to the Constitution, making it, in his assessment, more citizen-oriented. According to Lula, the two weekly days off meant more dignity. #Democracia #Cidadania #DireitosHumanos (translated)
