A nationwide strike by Portugal’s land registry and notary workers saw a high participation rate of 93.41% today, according to the union. The strike resulted in the closure of the majority of land registry offices across 14 mainland districts. Union representatives announced the widespread disruption to services due to the strong worker turnout. The action is protesting working conditions and pay within the sector. The closures are impacting citizens requiring property registration, legal documentation, and other related services. Further disruptions are anticipated if a resolution is not reached between the union and authorities. The strike highlights ongoing labor tensions within Portugal’s public administration.
