redundancy payment is being dismissed due to excess of personnel; it does not exist in Brazil. FGTS is to indemnify the employee unfairly dismissed by the employer in Brazil.

neutral Martin Riordan : Redundancy: "A dismissal of an employee from work for being no longer necessary; a layoff." - The Free Dictionary. Workers are dismissed when no longer needed or cannot be kept on. Brazilian law says this is unjust, others call it market forces.

redundancy fund wthdrawals

FGTS - Fundo de Garantia de Tempo de Serviço. It is a redundancy fund held in the employee's name by the Caixa Econômica Federal to which the employer contributes 8% of the employee's gross salary per month. The employee can access the money if he is made redundant or in some other circumstances. "movimentação" would refer to withdrawals, as the only other "movimentação" is the monthly deposit by the employer.
Peer comment(s):

agree Denis Paolillo : withdrawals are allowed if you are fired, if you have a terminal disease (there's a list), if you're buying real state and when you retire. There are some exceptions in which the giv may allow withdrawals.
