The Portuguese government has successfully reached a salary enhancement agreement for 2025, proposing a minimum guaranteed wage increase to 870 euros gross. However, the General Confederation of Portuguese Workers (CGTP) has opted out of this agreement, raising concerns about the inclusivity of the negotiations.

The agreement aims to address the rising cost of living and improve the financial stability of workers across various sectors. The proposed increase in the minimum wage is seen as a crucial step towards ensuring that workers can meet their basic needs.
