The Pension reform in Brazil was a proposal by the Brazilian government to amend the Constitution for the reform of the social security system of the country. By changing the country's constitution, it had to be approved in both houses of the National Congress by an absolute majority.[1][2] The reform was created to combat the giant deficit in the pension system, of more than R$194 billion in 2018, and the rapid aging of the Brazilian population.[3]
The original text was delivered by the President of Brazil Jair Bolsonaro to the President of the Chamber of Deputies Rodrigo Maia on 20 February 2019 to initiate the legal rite.[2] The reform proposal was approved by the Federal Senate on 22 October 2019, becoming law and coming into force automatically.[4] Among other details, the reform raises the retirement age and requires more time for civil service workers to receive a maximum retirement benefit.
