Even if minimum salary in the State rose to 1030 euros in 2027 it would be "short", says Fesap

Now15 September 2026 at 16:13

Fesap considers that the minimum salary in Portuguese public administration, even if it rose to 1030 euros in 2027, would continue to be insufficient. The union classifies this value as "short" to meet the needs of public sector workers.

The secretary-general of Fesap argued that the remuneration base of public administration must continue to be increased, progressively moving away from the national minimum salary. This position arises in the context of discussions about the valorization of salaries in the public sector.

The trade union organization argues that convergence with the national minimum salary is not sufficient to attract and retain qualified workers in the State, and it is necessary to guarantee more competitive salary conditions.

Why this matters

The article is of interest to workers in Portuguese public administration and those who follow salary policies, as it reveals Fesap's position on the need for increases above the national minimum salary. This discussion arises in the context of salary negotiations in the public sector and reflects the broader debate on the valorization of salaries in Portugal.
