Every worker who performs paid activity under the CLT regime is entitled to a salary adjustment. Therefore, reframing is mandatory in any kind of circumstance.
The amount to be readjusted is variable and the rate applied can be different according to the categories. However, it must be based on research on the percentage linked to the National Consumer Price Index (INPC) and other market studies related to the economic sector, so that the employee not only has salary adjustment, but also gain real.
In addition, for those who receive a salary higher than the established minimum, the annual salary adjustment is offered only in the respective base dates, that is, in the period agreed in the collective agreements where the professional union and the employers' union meet. It can also be done through a collective agreement, when negotiations take place directly with companies, taking inflation into account, aiming to provide purchasing power.
In recent years, Brazil has suffered numerous crises as a result of rising inflation in the country. What is currently expected is that the Extended Consumer Price Index (IPCA) will end the year at 6.55%.
This factor has caused disruptions in the financial life of workers, thus making it difficult to purchase basic day-to-day items, such as food and hygiene items. In addition, it also has an impact on the consumption power of the population.
In this sense, ideally, wage adjustments should be in line with rising inflation and other sectors that affect citizens. This is because such an action can contribute to maintaining the country's economy, keeping it active and stable, even in times of recession and crisis.
