PSP and GNR say "enough" and admit they may return to the streets

Notícias de Coimbra30 August 2026 at 17:38

The PSP unions and GNR associations express deep dissatisfaction with the lack of progress in negotiations with the government regarding the working conditions of security forces. The police representatives consider that the promises made by the authorities have not been fulfilled, which has led to a climate of frustration among professionals in the sector.

The members of these security forces admit to returning to the streets to protest, after having already held previous demonstrations that did not achieve the expected results. This possibility of new mobilization arises as an ultimatum for the executive to take concrete measures regarding the pending demands.

Among the main complaints are issues such as salary appreciation, working conditions, service schedules, and the lack of personnel in the corps. The unions point to a growing wear and tear on the profession and warn about the consequences that this situation may have on the motivation of professionals and the quality of service provided to citizens.
