Campaign «Employment and workers' rights, against exploitation»

A call to the workers

The epidemic and its effects have been used by big capital to worsen exploitation and use public resources to guarantee profits and distribute dividends, promote dismissals, unemployment, poverty and inequality, jeopardise rights and working conditions and limit political and trade union rights.

It does not have to be like this! It cannot be like this!

The PS government policy and its options, convergences and concessions to big capital, to PSD, CDS and their surrogates Chega and Iniciativa Liberal will not do.

The interests of the workers and the people, the future of the Country demand a different path.

Face the epidemic and its impacts.

Defend national production and create jobs.

Value workers:
General increase in wages for all workers, namely that of the national minimum wage to 850 euros;
Value careers and professions;
Fight deregulation of hours and reduce working hours to 35 hours a week, prevent abuse of continuous work and work in shifts;
Fight precariousness so that a permanent job corresponds to an effective employment contract;
Ensure better working conditions and effective health protection; Fight discrimination and inequality;
Repeal the grievous norms of labour legislation;
Guarantee the application of the rights of trade union organisation and action.

Portugal needs the patriotic and left-wing alternative, linked to the April values that the PCP upholds.

It is necessary to fight regressions, exploitation and impoverishment.

In companies and workplaces, in the popular celebrations of the 25th. of April, in the great day of struggle of the 1st. of May and in the national demonstration on the 8th. of May in Porto called by CGTP-IN.

For rights, improvement of living conditions, social progress.

Capitalism is injustice, inequality and exploitation. The PCP fights for the patriotic and left-wing alternative, for the advanced democracy with the values of April in the future of Portugal, for socialism

The workers can count on the PCP.
Join the PCP, give more strength to the Party of the workers, to your party.
