Criteria for receiving aid
But who can benefit from this aid? It is not just being a street vendor that qualifies you for this benefit. Therefore, there are specific criteria that beneficiaries must meet. First, it is essential that their business activity be located between Praça Quinze de Novembro and Rua Marechal Floriano Peixoto. In addition, an important condition for receiving this benefit is participation in professional qualification courses. Therefore, these courses are available through the Pop Center and the National Employment System (Sine). The objective is clear: in addition to financial support, the aim is to train and professionalize street vendors.
Benefits beyond R$1,500
The R$ 1,500 grant is more than just financial support; it is a step towards the formalization and professional development of self-employed workers. Douglas Martello, Deputy Municipal Secretary for Economic Development and Tourism, emphasizes the importance of dialogue and the search for better working conditions, safety and dignity for street vendors.
This benefit, therefore, represents a unique opportunity for informal traders in Porto Alegre, not only to improve their immediate financial situation, but also to invest in their long-term professional growth and development.
