Strikes
Hundreds of police officers and guards protest in Lisbon for better wages
Hundreds of PSP police and GNR guards held a national protest in Lisbon on Thursday, 29 October, to demand salary increases, career revisions, and better working conditions. Representatives from the ASPP and APG unions are delivering a document of demands to the Prime Minister, citing a lack of concrete proposals from the government during current negotiations.
