Flávio Bolsonaro backs hourly pay as alternative to ending 6x1 schedule

Flávio Bolsonaro and allied lawmakers back pay based on hours worked as an alternative to a proposal to end the 6x1 work schedule.

Under hourly pay, workers’ pay is calculated according to the hours they work.

The system is common in the United States.

The alternative is being discussed in Brazil as lawmakers consider changing the 6x1 schedule.

The proposal to end that schedule is expected to face its first Senate vote this week.

The vote will be an initial step in the Senate’s consideration of the proposal.
