My female friends and my male friends.
May 1st is a date that honors the struggle of women and men around the world for better working conditions.
And this year, here in Brazil, it has a special meaning, because this April we took a historic step for our country.
About: establish a 40-hour workweek with a cap on overtime hours
I submitted to the National Congress a bill to reduce the working hours, which will become, at most, 40 hours per week, with two days off per week.
About: adopt a 40-hour workweek with appropriate pay for hours worked
Without any reduction in salary.

The minimum wage, paid vacation, the 13th salary.
The people upstairs said that each one of these achievements would bankrupt Brazil.
And Brazil never went bankrupt from granting rights to workers.
It always became stronger.
Because every time the worker's life improves, the wheel of the economy turns more strongly and everyone ends up benefiting.
About: establish a 40-hour workweek with a cap on overtime hours
That is what will happen with the end of the 6x1 schedule in Brazil.
My female friends and my male friends.
