Congress: initiative advances for companies to pay their interns for overtime

The Labor Commission of the Congress approved a forecast that modifies the Law of Labor Formative Modalities, and determines that the interns of the companies must receive a payment when they work overtime.

According to congresswoman Isabella Cortezthis change is necessary because employers usually condition their employees to stay more hours in their workday, and if they refuse, they run the risk of not being renewed “as in the 1057 regime”.

Besides, They will be allowed to be absent on the days in which they have partial, final or similar exams, with a charge to make up their day.

In turn, the president of this commission, Sigrid Bazanpoints out that the benefits of people in the job training stage will be optimized, since there is no regulation to guarantee the right to education of practitioners and give them other licenses.

According to the bill in question (3559/2022-CR), it applies to beneficiaries of all training modalities. Now it must be scheduled for debate in plenary.
