Marek Boro\u0144. The agenda focused on delays in the Uniformed Family Charter and proposed changes to service compensation systems.<\/p>\n<h4>Demands for Uniform and Service Allowances<\/h4>\n<p>Unions are calling for higher, inflation-indexed uniform allowances, noting that current rates cover less than one-third of necessary equipment costs. They also seek the introduction of a mandatory minimum service allowance similar to models used by the Border Guard, estimated to cost 369 million PLN annually.<\/p>\n<h4>Expanded Rewards and Tax Reform<\/h4>\n<p>Proposals include a new jubilee award for 45 years of service, mirroring provisions in the Labor Code and the Teacher\u2019s Charter. Additionally, the union is demanding an increase in the second tax threshold to better reflect current economic realities and salary levels.<\/p>\n<h4>Operational and Welfare Improvements<\/h4>\n<p>Officers are requesting faster access to restorative meals during long shifts, as the current 10-hour threshold hinders effective support. They are also seeking an increase in the daily allowance for outdoor service performed between November 1 and March 31, currently fixed at 15 PLN.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During a June 15 meeting in Warsaw, the main board of the Police Trade Union presented a list of demands to government officials, calling for expanded benefits and updated financial regulations.
