Healthcare workers strike for better working conditions and career progression

jn.pt (Portuguese)

Healthcare workers are striking today to demand an end to excessive 14 and 16-hour shifts and a risk bonus for auxiliary technicians. The one-day strike, called by the STTS union, also seeks an end to precarious labor through increased hiring and accuses Local Health Units of failing to meet performance evaluation obligations, impacting career progression. Auxiliary, technical, and operational staff are included, seeking equal treatment and the restoration of performance evaluation points that have effectively frozen their careers.
