It is a very large weapon in the hands of the Construction Workers, which will be used immediately and effectively, for new conquests and improvement of working conditions and insurance.

The declaration of the obligation and the extension of the implementation of the sectoral CC throughout the sector, in addition to the employers’ organizations that sign it representing the majority of employers, must be done here and now, without any excuse from the government and the Ministry of Labor.

The Federation of Construction Workers, together with the Construction Workers Unions, will immediately initiate the process to declare the Contract mandatory for all employers, regardless of whether or not they belong to an employer organization.

We have big struggles ahead of us. With confidence in the power of the struggle, the organization, the Federation and our unions, we can achieve new victories and results. To protect our lives and open new roads for us and our families, thus contributing to the overall struggle we give as workers overcoming obstacles and difficulties.

Hope lies in the struggle for the satisfaction of our needs
