Petrobras Announced Yesterday (15) That the Union Tax Will No Longer Be Discounted from the Payroll of Its Employees, Surprising Oil Workers’ Unions Across the Country Who Promise to Appeal This Decision
Petrobras Has Just Made Use of the Provisional Measure Issued on March 2 by Then-President Jair Messias Bolsonaro, Which Aims to Eliminate the Discount of the Union Tax from Payroll, Consequently Ending the Obligation Without the Prior Permission of the Employee. The FUP (Unique Federation of Oil Workers) Was Surprised This Friday by the Official Announcement from the State-Owned Company, Suspending Membership Fees and Transfers to Affiliated Union Entities.
For Those Who Wish to Contribute to the Unions Voluntarily, They Should Contact the Category Entity and Request Issuance of Bank Slips, a System Imposed “Without Any Type of Communication from Petrobras,” Says the Oil Workers’ Union. Representatives Claim That This Measure Aims Primarily to Demobilize and Undermine the Struggle, “As They Are Essential for Resistance, Privatizations, and the Withdrawal of Rights,” They Endorse the Category.

Petrobras, In Order to Cut Costs, Has Been Divesting Many of Its Assets Over the Last 4 Years, Aiming to Raise Funds in Its Cash, Decrease Debt with Its Creditors, and Focus on Pre-Salt, Even Voluntary Dismissal Plans and Operational Cuts Have Recently Been Announced to Complement and Help This Cash Flow.
A Similar Situation Occurred in 1995 During Fernando Henrique Cardoso’s Government, in an Attempt to Also End This Tax, Including Million-Dollar Fines for Unions, but the Measure Ultimately Did Not Pass.
“The Workers United and Together We Managed to Overcome Those Turbulences. We Move Forward, Being One of the Most Combative Categories in the Brazilian Labor Movement. Now, the Bolsonaro Government Tries to Silence the Unions Again. We Will Resist This New Attack Against Entities That Can Currently Denounce All the Setbacks That Are Ongoing and Still to Come,” Declares José Maria, Informing That the Entity Will Take Legal Measures to Suspend Petrobras’ Decision.
