However, I cannot analyze all the individual cases in the comments left here on YouTube. Only in a private conversation is it possible to analyze the details of the case to give a responsible opinion on what is wrong and what can be done for each worker. Therefore, if anyone is interested in analyzing a specific case, contact me on WhatsApp (31) 98755-0566 or by email: [email protected] or consult another lawyer specialized in Labor Law. Please reciprocate my work by helping the channel grow so that I can inform more people, subscribe to the channel and share the videos with your acquaintances. On the week that has a holiday, do you lose the week off or will you be entitled to more than one day off? The answer is that you will PROBABLY be entitled to one more day off. The only reason you will not be entitled to one more day off during the week of the holiday is if the days off are fixed and the holiday coincides with the day off. In this case, unfortunately, the worker ends up only getting one day off, because it is a day that you would not have worked. On the other hand, if the holiday falls on a day other than your fixed day off, then yes, you will be entitled to two days off in the same week, the normal day off for the week and the day off for the holiday. If you do not have the fixed day off on any day of the week, when there is a holiday you will also be entitled to two days off in the same week. If the employer does not give you both days off, then you will be entitled to receive double pay for the work on the day of the holiday. And look, there is a situation in which you may be entitled to up to 3 days off in the same week. If the holiday falls from Monday to Saturday and coincides with the week in which you would have Sunday off, then all of your days off must be kept, that is, you will have the normal day off for the week, the day off for Sunday and the day off for the holiday. The second question in this video is whether “Can your employer force you to sell your week off?” And the answer is no, you can’t! Because the Federal Constitution requires that the employer grants one day off each week, preferably on Sundays. But if the company is authorized to operate on Sundays and holidays, then you can be scheduled to work on any Sunday or holiday and your day off must be on any of the other days of the week. Because of this obligation to grant the day off, the CLT determines that all companies authorized to operate on Sundays and holidays must create a schedule for each month and, in this schedule, indicate which Sundays each employee will work and which days of each week will be days off for each person. In other words, there is no law that gives a company the right to exchange your time off for money, that is, your employer does not have the right to force you to sell your time off. In fact, even if your employee agrees to sell their time off, it is wrong and the company that is caught doing so by the labor inspectorate may be fined. But now you must be thinking exactly the following: what if your boss does not respect the law and requires me to work every day of the week? What can I do to ensure that my right to time off is respected? The first step I always suggest is to consider talking to your boss, explaining what is wrong and requesting that the situation be regularized, that is, that the time off be granted correctly, in addition to requesting double payment for all the time off that was not granted correctly. In addition to this attempt at an amicable solution, you can report your employer to the Labor Department in your city, which will cause a labor inspector to appear at the company and issue fines. This inspection may take a long time to happen, but one day it will happen. You can also request action from your union. If it is a good union, it can pressure the company and even take it to labor court. Another possibility is for you to take the company to labor court yourself, asking the judge to order the company to provide you with the correct weekly days off and to provide you with the monthly work schedule. The judge may also impose a fine for each day off that is not respected. In addition, the judge may order the company to pay you double for all days off that were not granted correctly. It is important for you to know that you can take legal action against the company even while you are still working for the company. My main recommendation is for the employee to demand that the company give them an early day off when they want them to work on Sundays or holidays, because not having a day off can cause problems for their physical and mental health and their personal life.
