Government proposes 1% readjustment for civil servants in 2024

Salary readjustment

Budget will have a reserve of R$ 1.5 billion for increase

The federal government reserved around BRL 1.5 billion in the 2024 Budget for the readjustment of public servants. According to the Permanent National Forum of Typical State Careers (Fonacate), the value would correspond to 1% salary correction next year.

The numbers were presented this Tuesday (29) during a meeting of the National Permanent Negotiation Board (MNNP). The Secretary for Labor Relations at the Ministry of Management and Innovation in Public Services, José Lopez Feijóo, said that the government will work to expand available resources. According to him, if there is an increase in revenue expected by the government for the second half, there will be more room for readjustment next year.

“The process of rebuilding the State is a long one and we are going to make an effort over the next period so that we have more space to present a definitive proposal to the civil servants”, said Feijóo.

For the president of Fonacate, Rudinei Marques, it would be better for the government to present a “minimally reasonable” proposal.

“Speaking of 1% for those with accumulated losses of more than 30% is an affront to 1.2 million active public servants, retirees and pensioners, many indebted by the salary freeze imposed in recent years”,

said Marques, after participating in the meeting with the government.

The National Union of Federal Agricultural Tax Auditors (Anffa Sindical) was also present at the meeting. The entity assesses that the government signaling approximately 1% linear readjustment for 2024 “is very little and frustrates the federal agricultural tax auditors”.

“We, who have not been readjusted since 2017, expected the recognition and historical recovery of that period so that our wages could be corrected. This will really infuriate our affiliate base, we will have to enter into a negotiation process at a very high level of tension”,

says the entity’s president, Janus Pablo Macedo.

The National Permanent Negotiation Table was installed for the first time in July 2003, in Lula’s first presidential term, and was interrupted in 2016. Over 14 years, it has carried out 175 agreements with entities representing civil servants, which benefited around 1, 2 million active federal civil servants, retirees and pensioners.

In February of this year, the table was reinstalled. With the resumption of work, increases of 9% on salary and 43.6% on food allowance for federal public servants this year have already been agreed.

The forum is made up of 20 representatives of entities representing civil servants and federal civil servants and 10 representatives of trade union centrals. The government bench is made up of nine ministries.
