According to ‘Ertzainas and Lucha’, during this meeting they committed to starting a line of work to strive for a regulatory agreement, “where equalization has a place”, with periodic working tables, which they consider “a big step forward”.
The Security Department of the Basque Government met this Wednesday with representatives of the collective ‘Ertzainas en Lucha’ and the Euspel trade union. During this meeting, they committed to starting a line of work to push for a regulatory agreement, “where equalization has a place”, with periodic work tables, as reported by the collective ‘Ertzainas en Lucha’ in a note.
The group appreciates this fact as “a big step forward” but believes that “there is still a long way to go” to achieve parity with the rest of the Euskal Polizia (municipal police). The ertzainas group thanked Euspel for the opportunity to participate in these meetings.
This Friday, Euspel and ‘Ertzainas en Lucha’ will meet again in Erandio (Bizkaia) at 9:30 am with representatives of the Security Department of the Basque Government, and have called for a protest outside the facilities of the Ertzaintza of the said village.
Euspel denounces that they “have been abandoned for thirteen years, the outcasts of the Basque government service. Salary discrimination compared to the rest of the Euskal Polizia and in the ranks of the integrated police forces in Euskadi. Lack of staff, resources and training . Treated by bassists and even by fascists”.
In addition, Euspel and ‘Ertzainas en Lucha’ on Tuesday announced a strike during March and encouraged officers to pursue “strict compliance” with the rules, which will result in more fines and sanctions, to protest their working conditions.
