Central Bank servers scheduled a demonstration in front of the autarchy’s headquarters, in Brasília, next Wednesday (4), from 5 pm to 7 pm, during the Copom (Monetary Policy Committee) meeting aimed at the decision to readjust the rate. interest rate (Selic).

The in-person act is part of the upsurge in the mobilization of the category, which will once again cross its arms indefinitely from this Tuesday (3), in demand for salary readjustments and career restructuring.

The resumption of the strike, which was suspended between April 20 and May 2, was decided in an assembly held last Friday (29). In the last two weeks, the monetary authority employees had been operating in standard operation and making daily stoppages, from 2 pm to 6 pm.

“The choice to intensify the fight was due to the deadline for a referral to the BC staff’s claim agenda, mainly in relation to the salary aspect, and the intransigence and lack of significant advances within the Executive Branch during the period in which the strike has been suspended,” said Sinal (National Union of Central Bank Employees) in a note.

BC civil servants showed dissatisfaction with the government’s proposal for a linear readjustment of 5% for the entire civil service and presented a counter-proposal with a request for a salary recomposition of 27% as of July 1, no later than the first semester, in addition to demands of career restructuring.

as anticipated the Sheeton April 13, President Jair Bolsonaro (PL) decided to grant a 5% readjustment to all careers — including military personnel in the Armed Forces, as well as members of the Judiciary and Legislative — as of July 1.

Last Friday, Bolsonaro said in an interview with Metrópole FM radio, from Cuiabá (MT), that the proposal to readjust the salary of federal servants by 5% “displeases everyone”, but tried to distance himself from criticism of categories, asking for understanding. .

The members of the three unions also asked the president of the monetary authority, Roberto Campos Neto, for a meeting with Minister Ciro Nogueira (Casa Civil), which did not happen until the decision to resume the strike.

The new stage of the strike movement should follow the same pattern as the strike in April, with an interruption in the publication of bulletins and financial statistics, for example.

“The BC communicated, at the beginning of April, that during the strike, publications would be suspended. The same scenario will take place. The BC remains with the policy of giving at least 24 hours notice of publication of statistics”, said the head of BC Statistics department, Fernando Rocha, this Monday (2).

“In fact, the partial stoppages and the strike have prevented a series of internal work by the BC”, he reinforced during the presentation of the fiscal statistics for February.

The economic-financial notes (foreign, tax and credit sectors) were released with a lag of about one month. The publication of data for March has not yet been scheduled.​
