🇮🇪 EuroCOP stands firmly alongside our colleagues in the Garda Representative Association (GRA) in Ireland. The decision by the GRA to take work-to-rule action during forthcoming EU Presidency events follows a clear and overwhelming mandate from its membership. 94.2% of those who responded to the GRA members’ survey supported industrial action, with 93.6% of respondents to the second question supporting work-to-rule action during EU Presidency events. This sends a powerful message about the depth of concern among Gardaí regarding their working hours, rest periods and the continued erosion of their terms and conditions. Police officers across Europe are regularly called upon to go above and beyond in the service of their communities. But their dedication and professionalism must never be taken for granted. Agreed working conditions must be respected. Rest periods must be protected. The health, safety and wellbeing of police officers must always be a priority. EuroCOP recognises the strength of feeling demonstrated by GRA members and fully supports their right to stand together and demand that their concerns are heard and addressed. We stand in solidarity with GRA General Secretary Ronan Slevin, the GRA Executive and every member seeking fair treatment, respect and the protection of their working conditions. Your voice matters. Your wellbeing matters. And you have the support of your colleagues across Europe. 💙 United in solidarity. Stronger together. @gardarep @AGSI_Ireland
