  • Opposition parties insist on delaying a vote on a constitutional amendment to end the 6x1 work shift until after the election.
  • Flávio Bolsonaro's campaign advocates for a different project, a "flexible work schedule," resisting the current government's proposal.
  • The vote on the constitutional amendment is set to be postponed, with discussions to resume after the election.

The opposition is pushing to postpone a vote on a constitutional amendment that would end the 6x1 work shift until after the upcoming election. This move signals a strategic delay in addressing a significant labor issue.

Flávio Bolsonaro's presidential campaign is actively promoting an alternative: a "flexible work schedule." This initiative stands in contrast to the current government's proposal and indicates a differing approach to labor regulations. The campaign's resistance to the government's plan highlights a political division on the future of work shifts.

Consequently, the vote on the constitutional amendment is expected to be deferred. Discussions and potential decisions on this matter will likely resume only after the election results are known, leaving the future of the 6x1 shift in limbo until then.
