On Thursday, prison guards staged a rally in front of Monsanto Prison in Lisbon to protest their careers and working conditions, while a strike is planned for the 31st.
Frederico Morais, leader of the National Union of Prison Guards (SNCGP), who organized the action scheduled for 9 a.m. on Thursday, told Lusa that the protest was related to the demands that motivated the strike, including the issue of mission allowance, which also sparked protests in the PSP and GNR.

This certificate on the performance appraisal system will have an impact on career development and will allow it to be on par with the PSP appraisal system.
The prison guards are also fighting for better pay allowances, an issue he said includes the issue of provision of travel pensions to SPs and which does not take into account not only the prison guards but also the PSP and GNR.
Frederico Morais recalled that the government approved the assignment of the SP mission after the Prime Minister resigned.
For two weeks now, PSP police and GNR troops have been holding protests in several cities across the country against the fact that the government approved on November 29 the payment of mission allowance for PJ’s career, which does not have the same value. remaining security forces.
