Union advocates for salary increase for AIMA technicians

The Sindicato dos Técnicos de Migração (STM) demands salary increases for AIMA technicians following the agency's reclassification, which led to higher pay for its leaders. The STM argues that if the complexity of AIMA's mission justifies increased salaries for management, it should also apply to the technicians who carry out this mission. The union highlights the government's recognition of AIMA's specific needs through a budget increase for 2027, but notes that the creation of a dedicated technical career and appropriate salary supplements remain unaddressed. STM expresses concern over the lack of constructive dialogue with authorities regarding these issues.
