The Workers Revolutionary Party (Portuguese: Partido Revolucionário dos Trabalhadores) was a left-wing political party in Portugal. It was founded on January 31, 1975.

The party had a Trotskyist orientation, following the line known as "morenista" after Nahuel Moreno. PRT published Combate Socialista.[1]

PRT was in sympathy with, but not affiliated to, the reunified Fourth International.

In 1978 PRT merged into the Revolutionary Socialist Party, which eventually became part of the Left Bloc.
