Africa-Press – Angola. <\/strong><\/span>The National Assembly approved, this Thursday, the proposal for the General Labor Law, with 172 votes in favour, two against and 0 abstentions.<\/b><\/p>\n

The General Labor Law essentially aims at reinstating a set of norms that were revoked with Law No. 2\/2000, of 11 February, in order to create a greater balance in the defense of the interests of workers and employers and to reinforce harmony in labor relations.<\/p>\n

The diploma reintroduces the employment contract for an indefinite period as a rule, and unequivocally assumes the employment contract as the only form of constitution of legal and labor relations.<\/p>\n

With the consecration of the catalog of protection of personality rights, workers are more protected, under the terms of articles 20 to 27 of the proposal.<\/p>\n

The diploma redefines special work contracts, with a focus on telework and sports work contracts, as well as introducing greater flexibility in the organization and duration of work, with emphasis on the working hours of student workers and workers with family responsibilities (paternity leave).<\/p>\n

It also assumes the responsibility of the social protection management entity (INSS) to ensure the payment of sickness or accident benefits for workers who fall under the disability regime.<\/p>\n

It also clarifies the causes for the illegality of dismissals and the respective consequences, as well as the reconfiguration of the criterion for determining compensation.<\/p>\n

With the alteration of the section dedicated especially to women workers, gender equality and non-discrimination are enshrined, with the introduction of complementary maternity leave and social protection against dismissal for objective reasons.<\/p>\n

Also noteworthy is the introduction of personality rights in the proposal, especially freedom of expression and opinion, physical and moral integrity, privacy of privacy and protection of personal data.<\/p>\n

The General Labor Law, which was the subject of discussion in the AN’s specialized commissions, is systematised into 326 articles, 11 chapters, 46 sections, 25 subsections, 2 divisions and 5 subdivisions.<\/p>\n
