Bonus to INSS servers should return this month, says Lupi – 04/12/2023 – Market

The bonus to servants to speed up expertise and reduce INSS (National Social Security Institute) queues should be paid again this month, said this Wednesday (12) Minister Carlos Lupi (Social Security).

Lupi met with Minister Simone Tebet (Planning) this Wednesday afternoon. At the end of the meeting, the minister said that one of the topics discussed was the amounts paid for extra analyses. “My expectation is that [o bônus] still come out this month “, he said. The additional stopped being paid in December.

The minister stated that the criteria for paying the bonus are being reviewed. “We are already working on it [no bônus] some time ago, it was very badly done. You had some employees earning BRL 10,000 in bonuses, and the overwhelming majority, 70%, 80% earning BRL 2,000, BRL 2,500”, he criticized.

In his assessment, a large volume of resources is being concentrated in a very small nucleus. “We are democratizing this. We are seeing new methods that benefit those who produce more, without the culture of no, without developing a culture of denial, developing a culture of what is fair,” he added.

Lupi stated that the review process is nearing completion. “You can’t have a minority earning a lot and a majority earning little. It’s balancing this process.”

The minister also spoke about the fall in the payroll interest rate, a topic that generated a crisis in the government in March after a communication noise – two weeks after reducing it to 1.7% per month, the CNPS (National Social Security Council) decided to raise the limit to 1.97% per month.

“I’m already going to show you the rates and I assure you that they are well below what was limited as a ceiling. I think that just discussing this subject has already shed light. When you light a path, you see better”, he said.

“We have a follow-up through the data that the Central Bank itself has almost daily. As we set the rate of 1.97% as the maximum rate, and it was 2.17%, that already meant a drop. Not as I would like , but a fall,” he added. “And we are verifying that all the rates practiced are staying below 1.97%, which is also positive. There is a lot of fat to burn in this process.”
