- On March 7, the Executive, by assuming the responsibility, approved the draft decision regarding the modification of Non-working Days (art. 111 of the Labor Code). According to the draft decision, the art. 111, art. 135 and art. 158 of the Labor Code were modified by delimiting and exposing explicitly two aspects:

The first refers to the payment of the average salary for non-working days for employees who are remunerated according to the agreement or per unit of time (hour/day). 

The second aspect concerns the non-modification of the salary for employees with fixed salaries if there are non-working days during that month.
