How it works
What it is
Workers exposed to harmful agents above the limit are entitled to the premium, by degree: minimum (10%), medium (20%) or maximum (40%). The degree is set by a technical report.
Cautions
Update the base with the current minimum wage. The premium counts toward vacation, 13th salary and FGTS, and does not stack with the hazard premium (the better one applies).
Formula
How to calculate
A is the premium, B the calculation base and p the percentage of the degree. The base is usually the minimum wage, but collective agreements and rulings may use the category salary.
Example
With round numbers, so you can check the math:
With a base of R$1,621.00 and degree medium (20%), the unhealthy work premium is R$324.20 a month (20%).

The minimum wage, unless a collective agreement or court decision says otherwise.

The report of a safety engineer or occupational physician.
