The participation of workers at REN Atlântico, responsible for the operation of the liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal in Sines, reached 100% during the first two shifts of the protest that started today, according to union sources reported to Lusa.

The workers are demanding the establishment of a pre-retirement regime due to the strain associated with shift work.

The president of the National Union of Higher Education Students (SNESup) expressed concern for students who are in vulnerable situations, noting that this context may be affected by the strike.

The strike was called to pressure management to meet the workers' demands, reflecting the working conditions in the gas industry.
