On November 1, more than 300,000 employees will have most of their 13th salary. At the beginning of this month, the Government of Rio Grande do Sul decided to bring forward this portion of the benefit; therefore, public servants will receive 90% of the benefit almost one month before the rest of the population.
The government also presented a proposal to increase the meal voucher amount. Thus, if legislators approve the text, those who already receive it will see the amount increase from R$ 268.84, with co-payment, to R$ 366.60, without co-payment, later this month. Subsequently, in May 2024, it will reach R$ 400.
When will the second part of the 13th salary be available?
The 13th salary advance will benefit 119,000 active employees, 167,000 inactive employees, and 45,000 pensioners, representing an investment of R$ 1.6 billion in paying the benefit to those eligible. According to the government, the measure applies to workers associated with:
Own institutions;
Direct bodies of the state public administration, their entities and foundations, whether public or private.
In addition, most of the 13th salary will be available by November 1. However, the remaining 10% of the benefit will be released on December 20, which is the final deadline for companies in other regions to make the second installment available.

In summary, the 13th salary is available to retirees, pensioners, and those who worked officially for at least 15 days. In addition, young apprentices are part of the group that receives the Christmas bonus.
Payment is made in up to two installments. To determine its amount, the employee's total salary (including commissions, additional payments, etc.) is divided by 12 and multiplied by the number of months worked at the organization. Thus, the amount may be higher or lower than the usual salary.
