What Sindicato Dos Enfermeiros Do Rio De Janeiro does

Sindicato dos Enfermeiros do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (SindEnfRJ), founded in 2020, is a non-profit labor union (sindicato) representing registered nurses, nursing technicians, nursing assistants, and midwives across the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The organization operates as the officially recognized bargaining agent for nursing professionals in the state, holding exclusive rights to negotiate collective agreements with public, private, philanthropic, and filantropic healthcare employers including federal hospitals (INC, INTO), the state Fundação Saúde, and major private operators such as Hapvida NotreDame Intermédica, Fleury Grupo, and Hermes Pardini. Its stated purpose is collective bargaining, labor-rights defense, salary-floor negotiation (including advocacy for the national Piso Nacional da Enfermagem), career-plan implementation (PCCS), and litigation against outsourcing and precarious employment practices.

SindEnfRJ's core service portfolio comprises union membership enrollment (Sindicalização), collective agreement negotiation and publication (Acordos e Convenções), legal advisory and judicial defense (Plantão Jurídico), member-benefit partnerships (Convênios), and the publication of its periodical 'Tempo de Luta'. The business model is a subscription-based membership model: individual nurses pay R$30 per month via recurring credit card or R$360 per year via debit card, credit card, or bank slip. The union is governed by an elected board (the 2024-2028 term was won by Chapa 1 with 81.45% of votes) led by President Elizabeth Guastini, and is operationally run from a headquarters inaugurated in May 2026 at Rua Pedro Lessa, 35, Cinelândia, Rio de Janeiro, staffed by 8 employees.

Revenue is derived almost exclusively from individual membership dues, supplemented by in-kind support from affiliated labor federations. SindEnfRJ is affiliated with major national and international labor organizations — CUT, FNE, CNTS, DIEESE, PSI, Friedrich Ebert Stiftung, and Union to Union — providing access to economic studies, training, and international solidarity campaigns. Distribution is multi-channel: direct enrollment via the union website and in-person, hospital and facility visits by union directors, social media (Facebook, Twitter/X, Instagram), a newsletter, and a print newspaper distributed at healthcare worksites across Rio de Janeiro state.

Broad incumbents

• CUT - Central Única dos Trabalhadores: Brazil's largest labor confederation and SindEnfRJ's parent federation. Operates as a generalist umbrella over multiple sectoral unions including SindEnfRJ, providing political coordination and training via dirigente formadoras.
• PSI - Public Services International: Global federation of public-sector unions representing 180 million workers. Partners with SindEnfRJ on initiatives such as the May 2026 gender equity seminar; comparable in mission and a direct upstream counterpart.

Others

• Coren-RJ - Conselho Regional de Enfermagem do Rio de Janeiro: Regional nursing regulatory council that licenses and disciplines nurses in RJ. Adjacent (not a competing union) but operates in the same nursing labor ecosystem and intersects with SindEnfRJ's advocacy on professional recognition.
• DIEESE - Departamento Intersindical de Estatística e Estudos Socioeconômicos: Inter-union research and statistics department serving Brazilian unions. Provides the economic studies (e.g., impact of the nursing salary floor) that SindEnfRJ relies on for its bargaining positions; serves as an enabling counterpart rather than a competitor.

Direct peers

• FNE - Federação Nacional dos Enfermeiros: National federation of nurses' unions in Brazil, of which SindEnfRJ is an affiliate. Operates as the direct national-level counterpart, coordinating advocacy on the Piso Nacional and broader nursing labor policy.
• CNTS - Confederação Nacional dos Trabalhadores em Saúde: National confederation representing health-sector workers in Brazil. SindEnfRJ is affiliated with CNTS; it is the closest sector-wide peer for collective bargaining coordination and joint campaigns.
• ABEn - Associação Brasileira de Enfermagem: Brazilian Nursing Association — the principal professional/scientific association representing nursing in Brazil. Comparable mission around advancing the nursing profession, though focused on academic/scientific rather than collective-bargaining representation.
• Sindfiberj - Sindicato das Misericórdias e Entidades Filantrópicas e Beneficentes do Estado do Rio: Rio state union representing philanthropic and charitable healthcare institutions.

Regional players
