Amid Expectation for the New Ibama Job Vacancies Examination Notice, Already Hired Employees Are on Strike This January. Check Details
The Brazilian Institute of Environment and Renewable Natural Resources (Ibama) is facing a work stoppage by its employees, even amid growing expectations for a new public job examination. The strike was motivated by demands for more hires and better working conditions, while the publication of the notice for the new examination is scheduled for April and May.
Ibama employees are demanding more personnel hires due to the fact that the institute is operating with only 52% of its staff filled. Additionally, a bill that transforms positions has recently been approved, which could further increase the need for new hires.
Details of Job Vacancies and Projections for the New Ibama Examination
The new Ibama examination foresees the creation of 2,115 vacancies for analysts, which will require a higher education degree. Of these, 519 vacancies are the result of the transformation of 1,174 administrative technician positions, while another 697 are for environmental specialist analysts. President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva also highlighted the necessity of the examination, emphasizing that the institute currently has only 700 employees, compared to the 1,700 it had in the past.
