Road Workers Union held plenary and says "patience" is not eternal

Funchal Notícias14 September 2026 at 18:37

Today, in Madeira, the plenary of public transport and tourism workers covered by the collective bargaining agreement (CCT) signed with ACIF was held. The Road Workers Union was the organizer of this meeting, in which the workers reaffirmed their support for the union proposals defended by STRAMM/FECTRANS at the negotiating table.

The present workers demonstrated unity around the union's demands, mandating STRAMM to continue defending their positions. The union's information states that the professionals are determined to fight for their labor rights.

The article's title indicates that workers' "patience" is "not eternal", suggesting there is a climate of tension in the negotiations and that workers are exhausting their willingness to accept solutions that do not meet their expectations. The CCT in question was signed with ACIF, the business association of the sector.

Why this matters

Madeiran workers in the transport and tourism sectors are closely following these negotiations, as their outcome may directly affect wages, working conditions, and service availability. The message that "patience" is not eternal suggests that if negotiations do not progress, there may be an escalation of measures such as strikes.
