The president of the CCP, Gustavo Paulo Duarte, stated that a labor reform is possible, as long as it includes measures that "truly matter" to workers and the economy. His statements come at a time when the need to update labor laws in Portugal is being discussed.
Gustavo Paulo Duarte considered that the negotiation process of the labor reform served as a negative example of what should not be done. The CCP leader criticized the way the negotiations were conducted, suggesting that there was a lack of genuine dialogue between the parties involved.
The official highlighted that any labor market reform must be accompanied by concrete and effective measures that address the real needs of workers. This position comes in the broader context of the debate on flexibility and employment protection in Portugal.
