One of the main police unions, Un1té (formerly SGP Police Unit), threatened the government on Thursday to call for a mobilization of civil servants if they did not obtain financial compensation for their commitment during the Games Olympic and Paralympic Games in Paris promised by the Minister of the Interior. Several hundred police officers demonstrated throughout France in mid-January, at the call of a group of unions led by Alliance and Unsa-Police, to demand bonuses for all the agents hired.
Two weeks later, Gérald Darmanin announced an exceptional bonus, increased to 1,900 euros for police officers and gendarmes working in Île-de-France. To this bonus was added compensation of 50 euros per night for all police officers displaced for at least five days on security missions or linked to the 2024 Olympics. "To be clear, Bercy is blocking and Matignon is not refereeing," summarized Grégory Joron.
