Among other words, it is considered in the calculation of the amount of payment to be received by the policyholder of the INSSthe highest values of 80% of contributions to the public body from 1994 to the month before his departure as a way of making the ideal payment for each of the INSS insured persons.
What is the maximum ceiling for sick pay?
It is considered as the maximum ceiling for sickness benefit, the amount corresponding to the average of the last 12 contributions of the worker.
If, for example, the worker has an average of R$3,000.00 in his contributions, but his average corresponds to an amount of R$1,500.00 in the last 12 months of contribution, the sickness benefit of the worker in question will be limited to an amount of R$1,500.00.
