Private school teacher strike in Minas Gerais
Overview
Teachers at private schools in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, have initiated an indefinite strike. The labor action follows the rejection of a proposal by the Private School Union (Sinepe-MG) to separate the Collective Labor Agreement for basic and higher education beginning in 2027.
The Teachers' Union of Minas Gerais (Sinpro Minas) has reported instances of harassment and intimidation by school administrations, including requirements for teachers to individually disclose strike intentions. Sinpro Minas is preparing a formal complaint to the Public Ministry of Labor (MPT).
Sinepe-MG has denied harassment allegations and filed a lawsuit in the Regional Labor Court, characterizing the strike as “abusiva e ilegal” (abusive and illegal).
