The Algarve will join the national strike of workers of the Tax and Customs Authority with two concentrations, one on December 2, with the Directorate of Finance of Faro, and another on the 5th, at the Airport of Faro.

The objective of these initiatives is "to demonstrate the deep discontent of workers with their professional situation", according to the district of Faro of the Tax Workers Union (STI), which marked a stoppage between the 1st and 5th of December.

On December 2, the concentration with the Directorate of Finance of Faro is scheduled for 15:00.

On the 5th, a Sunday, at 11:00 am, union members and workers who join the strike will be at the Airport of Faro, "next to the two exit doors for passengers, between the cafe and the taxi stand".

"The STI is a union that privileges dialogue and the participatory process of presenting concrete proposals for solving the problems that the Tax and Customs Authority (AT) faces, in terms of human resources, and also at the organizational level", assure the unionists.

«After more than two years of meetings with the Government, where we were always open, constructive and participative, where, in good faith, we trusted in the deadlines that Mr. Deputy Secretary of State for Fiscal Affairs has been directing us to resolve the most urgent issues that we have on the negotiating table, and where we have done everything to help unblock the apparent impasses between the legal interpretations of AT, SEAAF and SEAEP, arrived the time to say enough», they add.

The STI also takes the opportunity to remind that “without taxes there is no State”.

«And without the State, there is no SNS, Security, Public Education, Public Roads and all other goods and services that belong to the People. They are from all of us. Without taxes, there would always be one owner, or several owners of all of this. And even more serious is that our politicians, who lead the destinies of the State, also seem oblivious of this reality», they accuse.
