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 during the interview with Lula held the previous day, a journalist from Rede Globo did not mention the end of the 6x1 schedule and said that the topic seemed forbidden. He claimed that Flávio Bolsonaro, if elected, would reverse the end of this schedule, implement a 7x0 work schedule, and eliminate vacations, thirteenth salary, maternity leave, and other labor rights. Manoel also questioned whether the questions for Flávio's interview had been agreed upon, mentioning that the candidate would have lunch with the owners of Rede Globo before the interview. He asked if the network would question him about cuts, attacks on pensions, BPC, SUS, public education, and the minimum wage, in addition to the privatization of Petrobras, which according to him could raise gasoline prices to R$ 10 per liter. Finally, he stated that the bourgeois media was on the side of the bourgeoisie and imperialism, against the workers. #Mídia #DireitosTrabalhistas #PolíticaBrasileira (translated)

Rodrigo Constantino criticized sectors of the left for celebrating the PEC, which, according to him, would prevent workers from increasing their hours to earn more, as if it were a historical achievement comparable to the CLT. He stated that workers in the United States did not have paid vacations, a thirteenth salary, or benefits such as food vouchers, meal vouchers, and transportation vouchers, and said that there was no compulsory reduction of hours without a salary cut. In contrast, he claimed that the average income of American workers was six times greater than that of Brazilians and stated that there were no Americans trying to enter Brazil illegally, contrary to what would happen with Brazilians in relation to the United States. #Trabalho #Economia #DireitosTrabalhistas (translated)
