Strikes
INEM technicians call for strike in September and demand expansion of ambulance network
The Sindicato dos Técnicos de Emergência Pré-Hospitalar (STEPH) has called for a strike on September 14 and September 28. Technicians are demanding that the INEM abandon plans to convert emergency support ambulances (SIV) into lighter vehicles, maintain the current network of 56 emergency ambulances (AEM), and expand the network to include at least two AEM units per municipality by the end of 2027.
Why it matters
If you experience a medical emergency on September 14 or 28, the strike may cause disruptions in the availability of ambulance services and the efficiency of the pre-hospital emergency response.Correio da ManhãRead original ↗
