After 24 years of service in the same house, the domestic Denise Cristina Barcellos, who was fired in December of last year and now works as a day laborer temporarily, reinforces the importance of consulting the material of the TMU. "I had no right to almost nothing in my termination. Today would certainly use the booklet in my favor, "she said.
 
MAIN POINTS OF PRIMER
 
RIGHTS IN FORCE
Minimum wage salary irreducibility; thirteenth salary, normal working hours not exceeding eight hours per day and 44 hours per week, paid annual leave with at least a third more than the normal wage, maternity leave etc..
 
REGULATORY FAILURE
Employment protected against arbitrary dismissal or without cause, unemployment insurance, in the event of involuntary unemployment; Guarantee Fund for Length of Service (FGTS), labor compensation overnight higher than the daytime; family wage paid by reason of the dependent worker low income, free assistance for children and dependents up to 5 years of age in kindergartens and preschools; insurance against accidents at work.
 
CLEARANCE IN WEEKEND
You can extend the working day from Monday to Friday and do not work on the Sabbath. It is important that such compensation is made in writing to the employer and employee are aware of the exact duration of the journey every day.
 
LUNCH TIME
The lunch hour is not part of the journey of 44 hours. The journey encompasses only the hours that are intended to work. Rest intervals, unless express legal provision, are not computed in the workweek.
 
CONTROL OF TIME
The work is based on mutual trust established between the parties. If there is evidence that the worker is reducing the amount of work in terms of hours, may discount the value of their salary, plus come to characterize a disciplinary offense punishable by the employer.
 
Regulations will unlock rights; MEI is another way
Being regulated in Congress that will define the rights and duties which are not clear in the text of the Amendment, the point that has generated extensive discussion is relative to the Guarantee Fund for Employees (FGTS). Part parliament advocates for contract termination penalty is 5% to 10% of the FGTS. Other workers receive 40%.
 
President Dilma Rousseff seeks flexibility in the regulatory process, which has lasted three weeks. If the discussion does not go, not ruled out the possibility of launching president a bill to regulate the issue. Rousseff defends 40% fine on FGTS in the event of termination by the employer (except for cause).
Another referral to many domestic as well as act as the diarist, is to follow Microentrepreneurship Individual (MEI).
