Strike action over pay freezes halted cement production at three of Secil’s cement plants in Portugal this week. The walk-out started on Tuesday 22 February and affected the operation of the Maceiras, Pataias and Outao plants. The strike was triggered by the announcement of a pay freeze in 2011 despite Secil declaring a 60% rise in profits to €120million in 2010.
