Does anyone implemented the Brazil union increase (Dissidio) within Salary Compensation template?

[Vmote26]

Hi All,

As of today we have a single Salary (global) template that include around 30 countries using merit, market, promotion and lumpsum.

Our Brazilian colleagues are asking if some how we can manage within the template the union increase called Dissidio.

To mention a few challenges to include this into our Comp- Salary template are:

1.- Different across Brazil, it is different for specific cities/provinces.

2.- Dates and amounts increases definitions are variable due to depends on union agreements, so they can happen between Feb and Nov and sometimes need to be retroactive, meaning confirmed on Nov but valid since Feb current year.

Any comments or guidance will be appreciated in case you have faced this before.

Kind Regards

Hi vmote26, I hope you are doing well.

Only for a comment I`d like to share with you my thoughts.

"Dissidio" is some type specific of adjustment, and as is, we may need to adapt our Compensation form to comport it, but some safeguards.

Technically speaking, Compensation was not designed to execute this type of adjustment that is regulatory and not merit based for example, for this reason we need to try another approach, treating this as pay component and applying the "Dissidio" as desired in Employee Central.

How to do this? I recommend create a massive adjustment using EC and Pay Scales Structures:

If even so you need follow with Compensation you must to create different form, only for to Brazilian Managers, that included one session and the Rules for "Dissidio" and launch for each period. Bear in mind that you need to adjust your pay component for each one to follow the payment rule described (Nov and Feb).

I hope this helps

Hi daniel.romanin,

Thanks for your feedback, definitely helps to understand another ways that this should be controlled from EC perspective and how can be ingested and processed by Comp. In our case we aim we have a global process that currently is working well but some localized scenarios like dissidio are not in scope because it breaks the global template.

Thanks for comments.

Kind Regards
