Residents of cities in the state of São Paulo with Petrobras operations have more time to compete for free vacancies in in-person industrial qualification courses at SENAI-SP with a monthly scholarship payment.
The extension of the enrollment deadline was formalized in a correction of the notice for the Autonomy and Income Petrobras Program, an initiative carried out in partnership with Firjan SESI and SENAI-SP, and provides a benefit of R$ 660 per month for participants with regular attendance, as well as R$ 858 monthly for women with children up to 11 years and 11 months.
The offer seeks to expand employment opportunities in regions connected to the company’s activities, prioritizing people without formal work ties and in a situation of socioeconomic vulnerability.
