On this April 25th, Bill 960/23, authored by federal deputy Duda Salabert (PDT/MG), completes 1 year of being stopped in the Chamber of Deputies, which reserves 4% of the vacancies offered through the National Employment System (Sine ) for transvestites and other trans people and 4% for homeless people.
Under analysis in the Chamber of Deputies, the text amends Law 13,667/18, which deals with Sine. According to the text, in the case of the absence of homeless people, transvestites and other trans people, the remaining vacancies may be filled by the general public. A year ago, the proposal went to the Coordination of Permanent Committees (CPP) of the House and there was no further processing.
Duda Salabert highlights that transvestites and other trans people have historically been excluded from the formal job market and that there are currently no public policies, at a national level, that encourage the employability of these people.
She cites data from the National Association of Transvestites and Transsexuals (Antra) showing that 90% of transvestites and other trans people have prostitution as a source of income and subsistence. “Without any moral judgment regarding the practice of prostitution, this degree of concentration occurs due to the lack of job opportunities in the formal sector, whether due to the direct prejudice that transvestites and other trans people face, or indirectly due to the school expulsion that many of these people suffer. during the schooling period”, he states.
The proposal will be forwarded to the House’s permanent committees and will be attached to PL 144/21.
“The lack of employment also seriously affects the homeless population”, he adds. According to the parliamentarian, data from the 2020 Homeless Population Census, carried out by the City of Rio de Janeiro in collaboration with the Pereira Passos Institute, show that 64% of people were in that situation due to loss of work, housing or income, with , of these, 42.8% stated that if they had a job they would leave the streets.
