“The demands we share with the Police Professionals’ Union Association (ASPP/PSP) and the PSP professionals are common, and it is the rights of GNR and PSP professionals that are at stake,” the association justifies in a statement.
The demonstration, scheduled for December 11, is one of two initiatives announced by the ASPP/PSP, which last week abandoned negotiations with the government.
Regarding the negotiation process, which it says has become “unnecessarily delayed,” the APG/GNR considers the government’s proposal to revise the regulations on paid services unacceptable. “Most of the paid services are provided to private entities, are voluntary, and are performed after working hours, requiring individuals to remain at the workplace for extended periods,” argues the association.
For the representatives of the military police officers, other measures should be prioritised, such as the remuneration system.
Until then, they continue, the “APG/GNR will not refrain from resorting to protest, using the necessary firmness.”
