How Can I Help?
No. 58 SEPTEMBER 2021
In 2018, almost half of the working people in Portugal had only gone to primary school. This is one of the reasons for the accelerated expansion of the tertiary sector in Portugal, which also comes in response to the increase in consumption needs.
This portrait is a short journey to the universe of people working in trade and services, with high rotation and low qualifications, in impersonal environments geared towards intensive invoicing. Essential workers, most of the time people who are poorly paid, who are on the front line of public service, subject to the whims of whoever they are dealing with. What is the day-to-day life of these anonymous people like, these people we can no longer do without? Find out more through concrete testimonies in various areas of business and service provision.
