Article 257 Federal Labor Law

The wage shall be fixed by day, by trip, by tickets sold or by circuit or kilometers traveled and shall consist of a fixed amount, or of a bonus on the revenues or the amount that exceeds a determined revenue, or of two or more of these modalities, without in any case being able to be inferior to the minimum wage.

When the wage is fixed by trip, the employees have the right to a proportional increase in case of prolongation or delay of the normal term of the trip for a cause not attributable to them.

The wages may not be reduced if the trip is shortened, whatever the cause.

In the urban or circuit transports, the employees have the right to be paid the wage in the cases of interruption of the service, for causes not attributable to them.

The provision that stipulates different wages for equal work does not violate the principle of equality of wages, if this is provided on lines or services of diverse category.
