The opinion of the territorial command of Braga is perplexing for the military of the NPR. This is a ban on requesting sick leave for up to three days through a self-declaration issued by SNS24, a regime that came into effect on May 1 and applies to all citizens.
According to the document which cm had access, “the armed forces of the NPR are subject to their own legislation”—in this case, the Military Regulations of the NPR—”therefore, the Labor Code does not apply.” Thus, when a soldier falls ill, he still needs a “certificate issued by a hospital or health center.”
The Association of Guards Professionals disputes the opinion and claims that the NPR military “are citizens with the same rights.”
The General Command of the PNR did not react in any way to cm.
