Itaú Offer to Fired Remote Staff Goes to Vote With Payouts Up to 10 Salaries

The offer stems from court mediation prompted by the union's challenge to monitoring‑based dismissals.

Overview

  • Roughly 1,000 hybrid and remote employees let go on September 8 will decide Thursday in a hybrid assembly whether to accept the TRT‑mediated proposal.
  • The package outlined by the union includes up to 10 salaries based on tenure, a fixed R$9,000 payment, the 13th cesta‑alimentação, and maintenance of differentiated mortgage rates.
  • For up to 23 months of service the offer is four salaries plus the fixed and benefit items, and from 24 months it is six salaries plus half a salary per year worked, capped at 10.
  • If ratified, ex‑employees would opt in individually within six months with union assistance and full settlement of the employment contract.
  • Itaú rejects the term mass layoff as it calls the dismissals individual ‘desligamentos plúrimos,’ citing four months of digital‑activity monitoring via tools such as xOne; the union calls the proposal positive but condemns the process and notes reinstatement was refused.
