PLENÁRIO

- President Deputy Charles Fernandes. colleagues here present I also want to talk about this question that is today very present. in the media, in the debate in the Brazilian society related to the journey of work. The arguments that are being presented some sectors empresarial the press me make me recover the memory of the Brazilian history. Brazil was the last country in the world to abolish slavery. And until the end the owners of our slaves, They said that they would abolish the scrabble and comprometering the Brazilian economy. We also have the same problem. with regard to the rights of the workers The rights of the work of the world In the middle of the 19th century, They were growing. In 1891, We had the Pope Leão XIII, Heron Novarum, talking about social issues, the importance of the rights of the work, Previdenciários And the world Just in 1943 period of authoritarianism of Vargas Conseguiu a consolidação das leis do trabalho. And it's important to remember that the workers and rural workers were excluded of the rights of the work in our CLT. This shows that we have in Brazil. part of our burgundy, not all. I want to give a, for example, a homenage to our former former Vice President, José Alencar Gomes da Silva, with whom I was living. and that had a great human and social sensibility, but a part the Brazilian burguesa, a part of our press, still kept to the legacy of slavery. Joaquim Nabucco, Mr. President. He said in his book "My Formation" that slavery would follow a lot of history of Brazil. And she's now, again, once again, in the moment we are discussing the rights of the workers the reduction of the work. Reduce the work means to make it possible that the workers and the workers "Tenha a vida mais digna." Tenham time to dedicate your families have time for study, for reading even for the professional performance. have time for their religious activities. for your leisure. for their cultural activities. So I'm convinced that we will have, colleagues parliamentarians, in the next few months, in the next days a fundamental debate a debate that is linked to the history of Brazil. We abolished the slavery. but we don't incorporate in the national life our slaves. And this legacy follows us until today. when we find We have voices that want to say that it's impossible to reduce the work journey. Ora! as people working a little less having more time for your food. for your personal life, family, can even increase their own production. So I want to leave clear here, Mr. President. our commitment With this reduction of work hours 5 by 2, 40 hours a day. work 40 hours two days a week for your family convict. community for their activities personal, family, religious and cultural. So I want to leave here this legado. and ask the colleagues parliamentarians Let's talk about this topic And we'll think about the future of Brazil. Because we are a country We are between 6 and 7, 6 and 7, could be between 2 and 3, the world's biggest economies. but we are between three or four countries the world's unjust and inequality. And this social inequality reflects well this debate that we are watching where sectors empresarial, journalists are saying that reducing the job is a attack against the national economy. A great hug, Mr. President, a great hug, colleagues, parliamentarians. and I want to be here since I didn't have done at the beginning, to to the employees and the employees of our legislative house, which make possible our work, and that this talk, President, is reproduced in the media of communication. Thank you.
