After this information, the program must enter into agreements with:
Travel and salary cut by 25% – The way the company pays 75% of the salary and the government the remaining 25%.
50% reduction in hours and wages – An agreement in which the company pays 50% of the salary and the government pays the remaining 50%.
70% reduction in hours and wages – The category in which the company pays 30% of the salary and the government the remaining 70%.
Agreement for the temporary suspension of the employment contract
If the employee and the employer agree to an agreement to suspend the temporary employment contract, the salary paid to the worker may vary according to the earnings of the work company. Take the example:
If the company is small and has sales of 4 million Rials R $ 800,000 in 2020, the worker will get 100% unemployment insurance. If a large company has earned more than 4,800,000 BRL in 2020, the worker will receive 70% of the state unemployment insurance and the company is obligated to complete the employee’s nominal salary with the remaining 30%
