(Investing)– Brazilian state-run oil firm Petrobras has seen no impact on its output of oil and petroleum products since the start of a planned strike by some workers on Monday, it said in a statement.
The firm said it had adopted contingency measures to ensure operation continuity, adding that market supply is “guaranteed”. Labor talks are ongoing, Petrobras said.
Petrobras and its workers have been in an ongoing dispute over a deficit in the retirement fund and a push for changes to the employee compensation structure, among other issues.
Oil workers’ union FUP said in a statement that the strike has started with strong support from Petrobras’ employees, with the oil firm having to adopt contingency measures in six refineries.
