Around twenty members from fourteen unions and associations within the National Police and Civil Guard gathered outside the assembly in Alicante this Wednesday. The gathering was organized under the government sub-delegation in Alicante to address grievances, advocate for an honorable retirement, and demand full pay equality for personnel across the State Security Forces and Organizations.
The protest, branded as the honorable retirement and full pay equality platform, brings together the national police and civil guard with support from fourteen related associations and unions. The group frames the current situation as a clear injustice, noting that police and guards who dedicate their lives to public safety are facing unequal treatment compared with other law enforcement bodies.
According to the platform, the retirement system lacks appropriate corrective indices at age, which undermines a fair pension outcome. It also highlights that the pay-equality agreement published in the Official State Bulletin has not been fully implemented. For the platform, these gaps amount to an insult and a lack of institutional recognition for members of the State Security Forces and the Agency who daily safeguard citizens. The message emphasizes that the discrepancy represents not only financial disparity but a symbolic neglect of the sacrifices made by these personnel.
The platform asserts that full pay equalization will be achieved through complete adherence to the agreement published in the BOE. It describes this demand as a sign of the urgent need and recognition of the work done by the national police and civil guard, calling it a fair measure that aligns compensation with duties performed.
The platform claims to represent more than 140,000 police and civil guard officers. It urges political forces and society at large to address what it calls an injustice and to support concrete actions. The group indicated that it will hold meetings to press for a clear stance from political parties on the claims and to push for tangible steps toward an honorable retirement and wage parity for all officers involved in national security operations.
