Leaders of the Common Front of Public Administration Unions and the National Federation of Teachers (Fenprof) welcomed the great support for the strike, which is taking place today in the public administration.
Next to the Antonio Arroio Art School, in Lisbon, closed due to the strike, the coordinator of the Common Front, Sebastião Santana, accompanied by one of the general secretaries of the National Federation of Teachers (Fenprof) José Feliciano Costa, highlighted that the waste collection sector had a 90% adherence to the strike during the early hours of the morning.
Next to the school and on terraces, dozens of students were socializing this morning, after finding the school closed.
Today, since 00:00, the Common Front is carrying out a “major strike” by the Public Administration against the Government, which it accuses of degrading working conditions and disinvesting in public services.
Participation is expected from teachers, educators and school assistants, doctors, nurses and health service assistants, public transport workers, inspectors and tax officials, judicial employees, among others.
The increase in salaries, the enhancement of careers, the restoration of public employment and the defense of public services are also reasons for calling for a strike that covers all State workers.
The Common Front represents 29 unions from all sectors of public administration.
