The strike also includes all overtime work during the month of May.

"After plenary meetings held on April 17, the workers ordered the union to issue a two-hour strike notice per shift for the days of May 6, 8 and 10, and also a strike notice for all overtime work in the month of May", announced the Union of Workers of the Manufacturing Industries, Energy and Environmental Activities of the North (SITE-Norte).

The workers will be gathered, on the days in question, from 08:30 to 10:30 and from 17:00 to 19:00, in front of the company's facilities, in S. Mamede Infesta, Matosinhos.

According to the union structure, which is part of the CGTP, the workers demand the negotiation of the list of demands, the defense of jobs and the continuity of Efacec as a strategic company.

"This strike approved by the workers is a 'warning cry' to affirm that they will not remain impassive and serene while the future of the company and their jobs may be at stake", pointed out the union, referring to the fact that the Mutares fund proceeded with a collective dismissal at Efacec Engenharia in April.

The State sold the totality of Efacec (nationalized in 2020) to the German investment fund Mutares.

Within the scope of the sale, the State agreed to inject 160 million euros into the company and the Banco de Fomento is financing another 35 million euros, through the purchase of bonds (convertible into capital).

Efacec, which is headquartered in Matosinhos, has around 2,000 employees.
