A new offer put on the table the Minister of Finance Ignacio Briones to unblock the project of readjustment of the public sector.

In the Finance Commission of the Chamber of Deputies, the authority proposed expanding the cut-off section for benefits and delivering a bond at the end of the conflict.

“We proposed a tranche (for the 2.7% readjustment) of salaries of up to $ 1,500,000 that covers 80% of the employees. It has been proposed to raise it to $ 2,500,000, which would mean remuneration of $ 3,250,000, which seems to us a very high limit, but we are ready to find a middle point and bring it closer to the $ 2 million tranche ”, the minister indicated as the first proposal.

Then he stated that “we are ready to deliver a bond for the end of the conflict but not 100% but half and exceptional time ” stressed. In simple terms, the bonus would be $ 98,000 for incomes up to $ 720,000, and for salaries above that limit and up to $ 2,000,000, the bonus would be close to $ 50,000. “We could propose this if there is the desire to move forward,” he said.

The deputies on the commission evaluated the proposal and requested that the exceptional bonus of $ 200,000 be included in the health fees that will be awarded to that sector. The minister agreed to this, even – when in doubt – he said that he would join those who were hired in the last 8 months full-time to face the pandemic.

The commission will resume at 2:30 p.m. to vote, in order to give the Executive time to write the instructions. The Chamber room is scheduled for 4 pm.
