Okay. Thank you. I will start by thanking you and saying that I'm very honored to be here. I don't forget the end. Thank you very much. And I'll direct the questions. And. The first question, I already talked a little bit about how we do to to respect the laws. I think that the key It's the same sector, all the people in various sectors or categories of work have to do your work for yourself, right? or we have to I put first "fiscalize" and then inform There is a lack of fiscalization of the cumpriment of the laws. people don't know the news channels of news of problems as people, as people... in Portugal the tax of sindicalization is very low and obviously when we have work with a very low remuneration the tax of sindicalization will be worse. We have to inform ourselves about sindicatos, organização coletiva, sobre formas de denúncia de não cumprimento de of the rules and we are talking about all kinds of things, namely abuse. um labor, sexual, all these things. I need much information and, for example, I said at the beginning of my intervention that there was a site for the statute and he doesn't have only the statute, he has other information. This was a reivindication that we made. that it was important to have other laws, other links Another information for people. And then the fiscalization and then the internal vigilance between us. In good sense, vigilance in good sense, which is, for example, we have a There are some key agents, for example, producers, producers, are the key agents, because they are who make contracts, who make funds in institutions. So, if there is a network of producers, it's going to talk to them, it's going to make information. And what happened in Portugal is that it depends a lot of the areas. There are areas where the practices began to change There are people who think that it was the statute that brought the obligation of the work contracts And although it doesn't seem true, we a little bit of a struggle about it. or some companies start to do theater, for example, some companies start to do contracts because as workers work in several companies, they say "but there are contracts and here they don't do it" and they say "pronto, I'm going to get to know". I think that the sector in itself is the key, with a lot of information and pedagogia So about the subject of the PJTization, something that we did We have another system, but it's parecido. and what we started to do was to do the accounts to pick up the cake that we had in the budget the final cake that the worker would receive, everything that was contributions, rights, subsidies, everything, everything. and we made the account and we concluded that even for those who contract It wasn't so much cheaper. to do contract with the MAE and the red receive from the contract. Then the second big thing, or again, information. There are preconceitos, there are preconceived ideas about what is more easy, what is less bureaucratic. that sometimes it's not true and people keep a little agarred to that. In the case of what our statute does and what is necessary to do much, and it's more easy to do, it's a democratizar e simplificar to make a contract of work. In this moment I want to... I have a small... a institution has a theater company I will do a digress, I need a light technician for two days, I want to make this work contract I want to spend 10 minutes of my time if I am a producer and I want to be done with this contract, I want to have a security, where I quickly make a security for two days, I quickly send the contract, I have a minute already Pronto, ou seja, temos de... simplificar processos, automatizar processos, so that it is easy to do contract to work. I didn't understand very well in your proposal, how you play with these forms of organization of work. What is the statute in Portugal does? You go to the Code of Work, see the types of contract, contract without term. or, that is a fixed post and it's a work for always. with term, we see the various types, and in everything we saw that the labor labor could be a little too much for cultural work, not for the rest of the things, but for cultural work, we change. For example, in Portugal it is禁止 to do contracts with the same person several times, because supposedly you are always going to contract the same person for a long time It's because you need a person always. But in the case of culture we think that In our case, we can take this, not from the general law, but in our case, because, for example, someone may want to hire a actress now, but then not hire, because it doesn't work on the project, but then hire a actress again. So, it was that we did. was in everything that the labor labor was restricted for our area, for example, nightly, this type of stuff. We simplified it a little. and it needs to do even more work and democratize to be so easy to do a contract to work, it's so easy to do a contract to work to make a tax note of the MEI, I don't know how it is. I think that's the key. I just pointed out here that someone said: "We now have rights to work, but I think we always had rights to work, right? In every side, we have to have them all. And about the list of professions. We have not in any area, in the cultural sector, We don't have any kind of a "assign" type of "assign" This is not exist, or, the access to a profession is free, What we have now associated with our statute is a list enormous professions with six levels of specialization, category general, sub, sub, sub, sub, this you can also see a list is a big list, then we have the equivalent to the Registro of Activity economic that is also categorized but in fact I I have to answer this, but I don't remember what was the question about the access to the profession. And. about the relationship between Portugal and Brazil Our statute doesn't say anything in particular, it is a little bit more resumido than the the vossas proposal, but it has an article about foreign workers um I also don't understand much about this question. And. So about the issue of employment access, being part of a social organization of a company This was one of the things that made some people open eyes during the pandemic. because many people who were in these statutory institutions, for example, the cultural associations, companies, etc. There was a time when we had some extraordinary support because of the pandemic and these people didn't have access. precisely, you were explaining But at the same time, people have to open eyes. Because if people have a company, and you were saying I have a company For being a actress, It doesn't make sense to have a company to... to be able to do their work. This movement which is very big, which is very big, which is very big, which is a sort of cultural culture, which we are becoming a kind of precarious, not we are not employees, we are precarious, and we see this a lot of... you don't call them "stafetas", "entregadores", not I know, people with "mochilinhas". This is a global global movement It's hard to try, but we have to try and hear the absurd that is to be a company to work And. Thank you. So, the last question I have about intermitence. The intermitence is the great key and the great reason for us to need a statute. If it wasn't intermittent, we would obviously have to fight, but it's a particularity of our area. So we need to recognize these particularities that already talked about and that we don't work We didn't work 20 days a month, right? Seconds to sexts, eight hours a day. which is the normal regime of many jobs, much more than 8 hours, and you have even 6 hours for whatever, they work on Saturday, I don't know very well, but to recognize that this way of work exists and is valid. and that it's not two or three people, it's a lot of people. And then, who really has to recognize this is the Previdência. It's the system, not it? The system is made in this monthly logic, in this logic of 8 days And what? important is to change this logic. What in Portugal we suggest and there is a thing that we do? We do one conversion between the received money the value received in a year or in a period of time, and we have a conversion, always in dispute, between the money received of all the cash of the values that the person receives, and convert this money into days of work. and it's a way of then to see the minimum time to work for a seguro-desemprego So that was what we suggested. I, in fact, I still didn't think in a way and I was reading the proposal and I also didn't understand well what was the proposal, but the conversion of the value received in days of work is the way to be able to be the most easy But... so that the Prevision can manage our work regime. Thank you. And I end with this. a plan do a few For example, you still propose for access to a special subsidy, I don't know, to complement which are 12 months. But then they say that for these 12 months of work, everything contributes Extra-baleo. I think they need to specify a little bit this and I think 12 months is a lot of time and essential is a short guarantee a very easy access, very automatic to subsidy Because people will not have to spend much time, they will spend a month, at least, without working. even because a subsidy for example in Portugal is 65% of the income So it's much less than what the person is used to receive. So it's a short guarantee very easy access to the subsidy complementar or as you call it in France, the subsidy intermitence And I think that this is the key to having the health of the previdences, social rights with intermittent work. Thank you.
