Definition
The Federal Labor Law (LFT), particularly in Articles 2 and 85, refers to a 'Remunerative Salary' (salario remunerador) as a wage that is never less than the legally established minimum wage and is sufficient to ensure a dignified life for the worker. It implies that the compensation received should adequately cover the worker's basic needs and contribute to their well-being. Article 85 further specifies that the amount of the salary should take into consideration the quantity and quality of the work performed, ensuring fair compensation for labor contributions.
