What is the purpose of the new portal?
According to the Federal Government, the purpose of the new information portal is to adapt beneficiaries to the digital version of the application. In this way, the platform contains various news and information for users to use the service and become familiar with the digital environment. Through it, it is possible to access the services offered by the INSS, legislation and frequently asked questions regarding the FGTS.
The expectation is that a year from now, the new portal will significantly reduce the time spent by companies to fulfill their obligations. After all, there will be the possibility of accessing an extensive eSocial database, with debts of individual workers through the CPF.
Therefore, the time spent by companies to fulfill their obligations related to FGTS collection should be reduced, greatly increasing productivity. With this digital tool, there can be a decrease of up to 36 hours in the time spent in this process.
Benefits of Digital FGTS
According to some studies, the FGTS Digital will still greatly reduce the collection of defaults. After all, currently, the charge can still undergo changes and start to have a more favorable effect. Thus, the new platform can escape the current period of 5 years and collect more quickly from defaulters. It is a very practical tool that, in addition to streamlining processes, keeps employees and employers transparently informed.
In addition, even payment will be expedited through payment made by Pix, where payment slips will be issued on the FGTS Digital portal or in the virtual environment section of eSocial. It will also be possible to print the statement of payments made, check open debts, payment of indemnity fines and separate payment statements.
