The post-coup Brazilian government is proposing a law that would expand the working day for temporary workers from 8 to 12 hours.
The announcement on Thursday was made by the head of the Labor Ministry, Ronaldo Nogueira, who indicated that the average 44-hour working week day will remain.
Noriega told a local radio in Sao Paulo that the goal of the project is to end "labor trials tormenting" businessemen in the country.
This is one of the measures that the government of President Michel Temer proposed to change once he took office, after Dilma Rousseff was ousted.
