The government offers this benefit to those who were dismissed without just cause, that is, when the company lets them go without a concrete reason. If you want to understand more about how this initiative works, stay with us and discover its benefits.
Who is entitled to the R$ 2,230 from the Government?
To claim unemployment insurance, there are certain conditions. The benefit amount and installments vary according to the length of your time at the company and the number of times you have previously requested the benefit. Therefore, it is essential that the dismissal occurred without just cause or that you requested indirect termination, that you do not have a fixed source of income, and that you are not receiving a continuous Social Security benefit.
The unemployment insurance amount is determined based on the salary received before dismissal and the formal employment history. In addition, the minimum amount of insurance for formally employed workers cannot be lower than the minimum wage (R$ 1,320.00 in 2023).
For domestic workers, artisanal fishermen and rescued workers, the amount is equivalent to the minimum wage (R$ 1,320.00 in 2023). Therefore, to receive the Government's R$ 2,230, the worker's average salary must be R$ 4,000.
