RTP workers to strike following management proposal

RTP employees have voted unanimously to strike, including refusing overtime and holiday work, in response to a salary increase proposal of 7.50 euros, which they describe as a pay cut. The workers' committee and unions argue this falls significantly short of the government's recommendation of 56.58 euros. Additionally, the management is seeking to eliminate retirement insurance benefits and increase employee insurance costs. The workers have also expressed a loss of confidence in the Board of Directors, led by Nicolau Santos, while the company faces financial pressure due to the government's decision not to adjust the Audiovisual Contribution for inflation.
