Brazil oil workers begin five-day strike

Workers at the 42 oilfields in the Campos basin have begun a five-day strike. At the heart of the dispute is a workers' demand that a day spent travelling from oil platforms to the mainland should be counted as work. The basin, off the coast of the state of Sao Paulo, accounts for 80% of Petrobras' daily production of 1.8 million barrels of oil.
