FESAP wants minimum salary of 1050 euros already in 2027

RTP Notícias15 September 2026 at 16:20

The Federation of Public Sector Unions, known by the acronym FESAP and affiliated with UGT, revealed its demands for salary appreciation in the public sector.

The federation demands that the national minimum salary be increased to 1050 euros, intending for this appreciation to occur as early as 2027.

In addition to the minimum salary increase, FESAP also claims a meal allowance of 10 euros for public sector workers.

These demands arise in the context of labor negotiations and reflect the position of the union federation in defending the rights and conditions of public servants.

Why this matters

Readers who work in the Portuguese public sector or who earn the national minimum salary will be directly affected by this claim. The demand for a meal allowance of 10 euros represents a significant increase compared to current values, which may influence workers' purchasing power and negotiations with the government. This position by FESAP is part of a broader context of union pressure for better remuneration.
