Jessica Srour, Director of the Brazilian Association of Workers’ Benefit Companies (ABBT), explains: “The assistance should have been organized and included in the workers’ food program. But that has not happened until today!”

On the other hand, says Eduardo Del Giglio, CEO and co-founder of Caju (a startup born with a proposal to bring innovation to the corporate benefits market): “The changes remove the entry barrier and reward the game for us.”

“Previously, choosing a company was an advantage for purely financial reasons. Now, the experience of the worker will start to be relevant,” adds Giglio.
