Brazil Senate to Vote on PEC Ending 6x1 Workweek, Reducing Hours to 40

Brazil's Senate is set to vote on a constitutional amendment (PEC) that would cap the workweek at 40 hours and eliminate the 6x1 shift, with the vote scheduled for Wednesday. The proposal has passed three of five required discussion sessions, indicating momentum but not yet final. If passed, it would mark a significant labor reform affecting millions of workers, though its economic impact remains uncertain.
