Lawyer Pedro da Quitéria Faria stated that the repositioning of senior technicians in schools, which occurred several years after their integration into the Ministry of Education's framework, is considered "legally questionable."

According to the labor law specialist, the revision of positions and the return of salaries raise "serious doubts" about the legality of these actions. He emphasized that case law has favored workers in similar situations.

Faria made these statements during a public presentation, where he referred to the legal implications of the changes implemented. The lawyer's analysis suggests that workers' rights may be at risk due to this revision of positions.

His comments were corroborated by several previous court decisions that have also favored workers in analogous contexts, thus supporting his argument regarding the legal fragility of these measures.
