Does an injured retiree have the right to temporary job stability?

The question of whether a retired worker who suffers a work-related accident is entitled to 12 months of job stability divides Brazilian labor law experts and courts. While some argue that retirees are not eligible due to legal restrictions on receiving temporary disability benefits, others contend that the principle of non-discrimination should apply, ensuring equal protection for all workers.
