SP city council has 129 "super salaries"

Plenum of the City of São Paulo: at least three employees have income of more than R $ 60 thousand per month, twice as a minister of the Supreme Court, for example.

São Paulo - In less than three years, the number of employees of the Municipality of São Paulo who receive salaries above the municipal ceiling rose from 76 to 129 - an increase of 67%.

At least three have income exceeding R $ 60,000, four times the salary of an alderman, who earns $ 15,000 a month, and almost twice as a minister of the Supreme Federal Court (STF) of R $ 33,700 . Spending on the supersalários is $ 1 million per month.

The House barred last month, the bill submitted by the Municipal Court of Auditors (TCM) to raise the income of a third of the agency's servers over the limit of R $ 24,100, today the roof of the municipal civil service.

The economic crisis and judicial decisions against payment were the justifications used by parliamentarians not to vote for the proposal, which was pending. Also last month, the House approved an increase of 0.01% for civil servants.

To be informed by the newspaper O Estado de S. Paulo State the number of House employees with salaries above the ceiling, the same legislators who barred the lead TCM proved surprised. "This information is not disclosed by the House. Was unaware that data and I think the ceiling should be applied here as well," said Aurelio Nomura (PSDB).

Andrea Matarazzo, newly affiliated with the PSD, the conduct of the House is wrong. "It's not often an employee get paid $ 62,000 (highest salary paid by the Board). The wages are below market values, but since they respect the ceiling," he said.

According to Gilberto Natalini (PV), each councilor receives R $ 11,500 net per month. "It is a great distortion. As we councilors, we have to pass an entrance exam very difficult every four years, which is the election, received a lower salary? The House needs to solve it. You can not have a speech out and another practice in, "he said, referring to the pending vote TCM project.

According to a survey done by the report, most employees who receive above the ceiling exercises administrative technical function or parliamentary technician.

67 are in this category, which, as defined by the Chamber itself, are persons responsible for "developing administrative activity of complexity compatible with their professional development."

'Elite'

The City Council currently has 2,097 employees, including gazetted, commissioned and CLT. Those who receive above the municipal ceiling represent an "elite" in this contingent.

They are 6% of the total. In the list are in charge of various departments, such as the Ombudsman, the school parliament, the library, the administrative secretary-general, the pantry, the garage and the medical department, for example.

Many of these employees extra sum to exercise management positions and stay allowances in their income. This is the case, for example, an administrative technician stationed in Masthead Unit that receives monthly R $ 48,400.

This value is incorporated into a residence allowance of R $ 4.8000. On the day, the employee's job is to receive and dispatch various internal processes such as office supply purchase orders.

readjustments

The Chair of the House, currently under Councilman command Antonio Donato (PT), reported that the number of employees receiving above the ceiling increased as a result of rate increases on the 2013 salaries here, always according to the inflation of the period , against the remuneration of the mayor, which remained frozen.

In addition, internal rules of the House set in 2013 act of Officers established that are off the ceiling extra amounts paid to employees - bonuses according to the position held, for example, earn bonuses to 88 professionals. This payment policy is the result, according to the presidency of lawsuits promoted by officials who had the salary cut between 2012 and 2013.

The same Act determined that the salary cap of legislative attorneys is equivalent to the monthly allowance of the judge of the São Paulo Court of Justice (TJ-SP), now set at $ 30,400 - equivalent to 90.25% of the income of a minister of the STF. Not to mention the bonuses and extras for gratification.


In practice, however, all rules shall be overcome in the payslip, since wages exceed the income of both the TJ as judges of the Supreme Court ministers. Donato declined to be interviewed on the subject.
