Brazil: 6x1 Workweek Reform Faces Post-Election Legislative Hurdles
The Brazilian government is actively pushing for a Senate vote on the constitutional amendment to end the 6x1 work schedule before the second round of elections. This initiative faces increased legislative resistance following Lula's first-round electoral defeat, which has weakened the government's leverage and complicated the bill's passage. The outcome remains uncertain, contingent on post-election coalition dynamics and the ability to secure sufficient congressional support.
