Deputy Carmen Zanotto (Citizenship-SC), who coordinated the working group on the financial impact of the floor, said that, for private companies, the withdrawal of social contributions from the payroll should be sufficient. They would start paying these contributions on revenue, as 17 other sectors already do. In addition, the contribution to the S System would be eliminated.
Another source of funds would be the allocation of a portion of the revenue to the regulation of gaming, which the deputy believes could increase from 4% to 12% in the project that is in the Senate.
Carmen Zanotto explains that the biggest problem is in the services of philanthropic hospitals for the Unified Health System (SUS). “For example, hemodialysis services are private, but 95% of the country's hemodialysis services are provided to the SUS. And there are the philanthropists, also known as Santas Casas. When we talk about putting more resources into the National Health Fund (FNS) it is to serve those who are within the Unified Health System, the philanthropists. Because for the exclusively private, the exemption from the payroll solves it,” she comments.
The proposed floor for nursing sets a starting salary for nurses of R$4,750 (US$ 1,020). In other cases (technicians, auxiliaries and midwives) there will be proportionality.
