The Attorney General of the Republic (GP) considers, according to an opinion issued by the Ministry of Education, that the strikes led by the Union of All Educational Workers (STOP) and the Independent Union of Teachers and Teachers are illegal. Educators (SIPE) executed.
The Ministry of Education announced the approval of the opinion and made it clear that education professionals must respect previous notices. The fact is that teachers and non-teachers are on strike for only a few hours, not a whole day. “There is a discrepancy between previous strike notices sent to the Ministry of Education, which stated that the strike would correspond to the daily working day, and information for teachers called “FAQ GREVE 2022” published on the website of the STOP union. which states that teachers can determine the specific duration of the period during which they join the strike, making it in these cases a strike with characteristics similar to those of a self-service strike,” ME says in a statement emphasizing that “conducting a strike under these conditions and to the detriment of prior notice affects the respective lawfulness of the exercise of this right.”
The MoE adds that “the opinion of the Attorney General’s Advisory Board will be ratified, as a result of which the strike must be carried out in accordance with the prior notices provided by trade union organizations, in accordance with the legislation regulating the right to strike as an inalienable right of workers.”
