Brazil - minimum wage, pay for jobs, etc.? |
Travel Info I know that the minimum wage in Brazil is now R$400 per month (about $200 USD). But, what is the pay for typical jobs? Like... Working at the front desk at a hotel... Working as a waiter in a restaurant... Working as a salesman in a store in a shopping mall... Working in a bank or for the government... Would these jobs be minimum wage or would they pay more???? Travel Tips 1 - Working as a salesman in a store in a shopping mall... : R$ 500,00 to R$1.500,00 (US$ 250.00 to us$ 750.00); 2 - Working at the front desk at a hotel...: I dont know; 3 - Working as a waiter in a restaurant... (? to US$ 800,00); and, 4 - Working in a bank or for the government...R$1.500,00 to R$ 20.000,00 (US$ 750.00 to us$ 10,000.00) or more, if a high executive (more than US$ 30,000.00 a month). Others The minimum wage in Brazil is now R$350 per month! I work as a forest consultant. My wage is BRL 2,500/month, or USD 1,225/month. Minimum wage os R$380,00 as of April. The jobs you refer to are regulated by unions, therefore they have higher wages for sure. for the governement only if you go trhu a civil servent test, that is all divided and hard to pass, pays a LOT more. Front desk does not pay very well, but averages R$ 1200,00 but there is a lot of comission on sales of tourism packagers, everybody pays comission to front desk, taxis, tour operatiors, even jewellery shops, boutiques, etc... Waiter depends on %, tips. Sales depends on comission banks aparently do not pay well, unless they are Governement banks, in which case a test is needed. Bear in mind language skills are valued here. A Lot of need for english teachers, translators, etc. but for some you need good portuguese. As an English teacher you can make something like 1500/2000 a month. It all depends on which city you are talkin abaout. I麓ll give ya S茫o Paulo, since it麓s the biggest Front Desk - R$900 - R$ 1300 Waiter - R$400 - 1200 + tips Salesman in Mall - R$ 500 + comission Bank - well this is so open... Could be minimum wage or 20k a month The richest brazilians are bankers Governament - open again few hundred or millions In Sao Paulo Working at the front desk in a fancy hotel: U$250.00 to U$350.00. ( don't belive if someone tells you is more than that!, some brazilians are too proud and unrealistic when they talk about their own country with foreigns.) Waiter in a fancy restaurant: U$250,00 plus tips, (is not like in the USA, in Brazil it is very difficult to get tips) Salesman in mall: U$250.00 plus comission. Working for the government: it depends it can go from U$180.00, up to U$15.000,00 The first 3 jobs are working class, you can imagine how difficult is being a working class in a third world country... Well... Our country isn麓t the best of the world. This thanks to politics and to economic sistems. Our people can麓t have a good life cause the government don麓t give value to the education. The education is the base for a powerfull economy. |
