Workers will be entitled to a new value with a 10% increase in PIS PASEP benefits

The government has just confirmed a 10% increase in the PIS PASEP benefit, which will be allocated to workers from 2025 onwards. This new development directly impacts millions of Brazilians who already rely on the salary bonus as an important aid throughout the year.

The 10% increase in PIS PASEP benefits will benefit a total of 26 million people, a number higher than the 25 million covered this year. O budget for the program in 2025 rose to R$30,6 billion, distributed among private sector workers, who will receive it via PIS, and public servants, who are entitled to Pasep. For PIS alone, the government has set aside R$27,4 billion, while Pasep will have a budget of R$3,2 billion.

New value of the PIS PASEP benefit

In 2024, the maximum value of the allowance was R$1.412, but with the increase in the minimum wage, which should reach R$1.509 in 2025, the ceiling of the allowance will also increase. The new 10% increase in PIS PASEP benefit It is based on the base year 2023, that is, the amount received will depend on how many months the person worked formally during that period.

Here is a detailed table to explain how the amount will be distributed according to the months worked:

Months Worked in 2023Allowance Value (R$)
1126
2251
3377
4503
5630
6754
7880
81.006
91.132
101.257
111.383
121.509

In other words, anyone who worked the entire year in 2023 will be entitled to the full amount of R$1.509. But it is worth remembering that this amount depends on the minimum wage. be confirmed at this value in 2025.

Who is entitled to the allowance?

To ensure receipt of this benefit in 2025, workers must meet certain criteria:

Be registered with PIS/PASEP for at least five years;

Have worked formally for at least 30 days in 2023, the base year for calculating the benefit;

Have received up to two minimum wages per month, on average, during the year 2023;

Have the data correctly informed by the employer in the RAIS (Annual Social Information Report).

These requirements have not changed, but the increase in the budget and the number of beneficiaries shows an effort to expand the scope of this benefit among workers who need it most.

Positive impact

O 10% increase in PIS PASEP benefit not only brings financial relief to workers, but also injects more money into the Brazilian economy. With more resources in the hands of millions of people, the impact is felt in several areas, from basic consumption to debt repayment.

With the new minimum wage scheduled for 2025, The expectation is that more workers will have access to the benefit and will be able to count on greater financial assistance. Now, we just have to wait for the official confirmation of the value of the minimum wage to know exactly how much the final impact will be on Brazilians' pockets.

This measure, therefore, it not only helps to give workers financial breathing room, but also contributes to the movement of the national economy. Keep an eye on the 2025 calendar to ensure you meet all the criteria and can withdraw your benefit as soon as the payment period begins.
