What is Unhealthy-work and hazard pay (insalubridade e periculosidade)?

Also: insalubridade · periculosidade · health-risk pay · hazard pay

Unhealthy-work and hazard pay are premiums for exposure to risk. Unhealthy-work pay (10%, 20% or 40% on the base) compensates exposure to agents harmful to health; hazard pay (30% of salary) compensates dangerous activity. They do not stack — the employee chooses the more favorable.

They almost always depend on a technical survey, and the defense rests on reports (PPRA/PCMSO), the PPP and the PPE-delivery record.

How LABORIS AI uses it

LABORIS AI cross-references the claim with the company’s reports and PPE records, and weighs the risk by the court’s expert-survey history.
