For Those Returning at This First Moment to Comperj Works, Initial Salaries Will Be Below Expectations
The Comperj works are certainly being resumed this June 2018, after many controversies involving the project, particularly concerning hiring. Speaking of hiring, they have already started, and there is a mobilization on site with workers carrying out the foundational work. In the video below, you can watch a special report posted yesterday by the main media outlets of the companies KEURI-METODO and Enaval in full activities.

Few remember, but the 2024 drought in the Amazon already affects transport, energy, and agriculture. Rivers are reaching critical levels, smoke covers cities, and the scenario triggers a global alert about climate change.

A strong cold front is advancing across Brazil now, but researchers warn that extreme heat is expected to increase, affect work capacity, reduce people’s income, and cause billion-dollar economic losses in the coming decades.

The fastest-growing risk in Brazilian cities isn’t only apparent during heavy rainfall; it has already increased by 145% since 1985, covers 1.2 million hectares, and can transform floods and inundations into an increasingly common threat.

According to the report above, despite the resumption of Comperj’s activities, many of those returning are doing so with salaries below average and in positions requiring fewer qualifications, such as helpers and assistants, for example. Those who wish to apply for these jobs can find more information in another article here; there are still openings for June. Furthermore, there are complaints from union fronts about the number of non-residents of Itaboraí or people who do not belong to the municipalities that make up Conleste (Consórcio Intermunicipal de Desenvolvimento do Leste Fluminense) “taking” the positions that should be for local residents.
The testimonials from those interviewed in the video make it clear how important the Comperj works are for renewing hope and dignity for people in the region. As Aldo Roqueira, an Industrial Plumber, mentioned in the video, the works will eventually end, but the petrochemical complex will need qualified individuals to carry out maintenance. Therefore, it is essential that those who wish to stay there longer begin to improve their skills and seek training that meets the project’s needs post-works.
