Pension reform: municipal police officers on strike for 24 hours in Strasbourg

Why a local movement? Because “with our colleagues, we realized that at the national level, the trade unions were not doing enough”, told AFP Thiebault Parre, spokesperson for the inter-union. The strikers want the integration of the function bonus in the calculation of pension rights, but also to be able to benefit from a special bonus for police officers, in the same way as that in place within the National Police. Consequence of the strike, “there will be no agent in the field between 5:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m.”indicated the representatives of the Alsatian police officers, stressing however that “three agents are kept on duty at the command post to respond to urgent calls”.
