Portuguese security forces call for protests amid negotiation scheduling

police protests security forces salary negotiations PSP GNR

The Portuguese Ministry of Internal Administration has scheduled new negotiation rounds for September 17 and 29 with the PSP and GNR security forces. The September 17 meeting is intended to finalize negotiations regarding a special supplement for airport border control, while the September 29 session will address career restructuring and work schedule organization.

These meetings follow announcements of a cycle of protests by the ASPP (PSP) and APG (GNR) unions. The security associations claim that a 2024 agreement, which increased risk supplements by 300 euros, failed to deliver promised salary reviews, career advancements, and evaluation system updates.

The ASPP has outlined a protest schedule between late September and October, with planned demonstrations in Porto, Lisbon, Leiria, and Faro. Additionally, the SPP and Sinapol unions have demanded that the Minister negotiate core issues, including the PSP Professional Statute, remuneration indices, and pre-retirement age requirements.
