Four ordinances published in the Official Journal extend the benefits of collective agreements to non-unionized workers in the insurance, publishing, and maritime transport sectors.
The Regional Government of Madeira, through the Regional Secretariat for Inclusion, Labour and Youth, has published four extension ordinances that broaden the scope of application of collective labour agreements to more workers in the Region. These measures aim to standardise minimum working conditions and level the playing field for companies within the same sectors.
The ordinances, which come into force the day after their publication, extend the agreements, including wage scales and pecuniary clauses, to workers who, while performing the same functions, were not covered because they were members of non-signatory unions or worked for entities not affiliated with the employer associations that signed the agreements.
The collective agreements subject to extension are as follows:
The draft ordinances were previously published for public consultation, with no opposition raised.
The Regional Secretariat for Equipment and Infrastructure has signed permanent contracts with workers following recruitment procedures. The roles cover economics and management, river and regional road maintenance, and cleaning.
Marlina Teixeira de Andrade’s intercareer mobility has been made permanent in the senior statistics officer career. The decision takes effect on 1 October 2026, and she will retain the remuneration received during the mobility period.
The draft final ranking for recruitment to an operational assistant position at the Regional Directorate for Tourism has been published. Candidates, including those excluded, have 10 working days to submit their views.
