Reflective vests for national police

The Interior Ministry in 2017 will buy a total of 3,500 female reflective vests for the National Police and Civil Guard, an acquisition that matches the demand in this regard came by agents of the State Security Forces. The department now runs Juan Ignacio Zoido made the acquisition in a contest that will draw to acquire 5,250 units this pledge security, as published by the Servimedia agency.

The demand for female vests for national police and Civil Guards has been raised repeatedly by groups of agents such as the Unified Police Union (SUP) and the Unified Association of Civil Guards (AUGC). This situation has led to a civil guard Salamanca has declared this last November for insubordination after refusing last August to get a male vest and insist on getting a female who had acquired on their own.

At the same time, according to data of the Interior, between 2012 and 2016 they were acquired 39,500 protective vests with reflective tape for State Security Forces. Specifically, 32,681 were for the National Police and Civil Guard for 5226. Also, within this overall figure 1,500 vests were purchased for the Traffic Civil Guard, whose agents have been in the past shootings and assaults during patrol work are included.

As published ABC, the controversy surrounding the safety vests arose when it was found that those of 'life' did not have the same effect on men and women. "They have to be adjusted to the body" to be "real" effective and is "impossible" that which suits a portly 1.90 can be useful to a small woman, denounced the Unified Association of Civil Guards. "Nor is solved with a smaller size,” he notes, because "curves" female make if these safety clothing are "straight" no "protected" and also reduce the ability of movement for actions like "unsheathe the weapon or access the shackles. " Hence, the claim that is in line with the physiognomy of the agents.

Wherever this sign appears, find the children via Internet-depth exercises. "I made it fun to practice on the computer. The issue, however, was really great," said the nine-year-old Emma in reflective clothing. Thanks to the support of Viersen the supply of primary school children in Viersenit is secured with the exercise book for three years.

Cars ", Claudia Koch calls after. Behind Alice spun the canvas on the floor, flies through the air and pounding on the asphalt.

Dog and owner run past the petrol station towards net market. Koch sees Alice momentarily no longer; only hear the noise of the leash. On Bushäusle the dog reduces its speed. Cook hopes to finalize by shouting the dog to stop. But Alice accelerates again. At a hall pass she runs across a field and walk towards Halden and fir Castle. Koch noted that she only wears her slippers and comes out of breath. The slender woman smiles for the first time during her story: "I thought, I need an oxygen tent."

Afraid that Alice freezes

The 44-year-old calls from home the police, the duty officer connect with a "colleague who has a guard dog." This is taken from an interrogation. "They listened to me patiently. I was scared because of the cold. She said, because one does not need the same worry "The policewoman in safety clothing asks:” On what they react? ". At some point Alice hunger. She knows not that long a walk. But should it be somewhere tangled with her leash, I'm a lifetime accusations. "

At 23 set clock family and friends a search. The thermometer shows minus four degrees. "It was not clear where we could still look. And I also did hand hurt from the food bowl shaking, "says Koch. The lorry driver is sleeping that night just over an hour. Again and again she goes to the front door and sees if Alice is in front of it. On Kellereingang she drops a blanket, and a scarf to remind Alice to her mistress.

The family posting on Facebook that Alice is missing. Even the radio station SWR3 brings a short message. Koch still prints at night Flyer from. At 8 am it's back on with the search. Son Steffen (24) does not want to go into work. His boss threatened him over the phone: "Is that all so important? This will have consequences. "Steffen Koch makes itself still with the search. Cook laughs: "The last name I do not know to this day. But she meant it comes to search and then stood there. "Create Kochs and their friends a plan where everybody seeks. In the Buhler Tanner stores Info-list to be hanged. Furthermore, the local hunters are informed. With incipient brightness many people are traveling. Koch is surprised: "I kept asking myself: whether belonging to us? Many also had the phone on the ear. "

Cried with happiness

She goes back to the place where they had the night before the search stopped - but without a functioning flashlight. Several times, the family walked through the Buhler Tanner district Halden. Koch is annoyed: "I hated myself. I cannot go to work and do so as if has been nothing but "Suddenly, it has a local resident in a combined counter and shouts:" The dog is back there, "Koch calls immediately her husband and remembers the reunion on the edge of the houses: "Alice was there, she was not shaking and looked at me with huge eyes." Claudia Koch crying with happiness, the local resident says. "Strange, 20 minutes before they were not there yet" the dog owner wraps Alice in a jacket. Probably the Dog Safety Vest gave some warmth and saved so that Alice's life.

Is it really cold, it becomes both wind panties, knickers and an extra sweater or vest over the top layer? Maybe I change even out skin layer against something that resists moisture if such snows a lot, says Annelie.

Road safety: the students wear safety vest

Bracieux nine college students received the National Order of Merit for their project around the port of yellow reflective vest.

Thursday, June 16, Hubert school in Bracieux has hosted prestigious guests. Valerie Goff, academic director of the department and Alain, Chief of Staff of the prefect, had traveled to greet the “amazing work and smart" 9 students.

For over a year, these college students and their history teacher, Romaric set up a project on the promotion of wearing safety vest. “We were surrounded by two professors of the college and then we got a grant from the Highway Safety to help us finalize the project," says Camille, a student participating in this production.

As a reward, they received the National Order of Merit awarded by the medalists and departmental chairman, Jean-Claude. “Now we will communicate this production to the national jury of the Order of Merit in Paris. We truly support this project because it is in time and we will do everything for it to go away, "says Jean-Claude.

Eight panels on a wall tell the story of the yellow vest over the centuries. It is amazing project Romaric and 9 of his students. “It was a kind of timeline incorporating the yellow vest in paintings and texts of our history book" says Camille.

"A Citizens' Agenda"

But basically, the idea germinated in the head Romaric. The teacher wanted to start a project that echoes an internal problem in college. “Many students ride bicycles or off the bus without wearing a yellow vest, he says, so we already wanted to trigger awareness in them.”

In depicting characters from the middle Ages coating the yellow vest, Romaric has integrated this item in history to "create a reflex" for these college students. Professor promotes another type of prevention, bypassing the awareness campaigns it deems ineffective.

This production, own students, allowed them to “take ownership history “, adding a touch of humor to the illuminations of the Middle Ages. What, hopefully, to get the message to their peers.

Safety vest keep student safer

Catherine is an angry woman. Wednesday, November 16 at 8:20, she takes her children in safety vest to school, Reaumur Street in the southeast area. As usual, it is she who is responsible for making schoolchildren cross the crosswalk. Because it’s unlike other sectors, here there is no public road security officer. Mom is positioned in the middle of the road on the way, arms spread, when a Fiat 500 driven by a woman of 23 years in Oise, arose and struck Ethan, four. Catherine's son was hit in the head by the mirror and part of the car. Lower lip "exploded" bloody nose, Ethan is projected on the side. Fortunately, the child is strong. Taken to hospital by firefighters, he was able to return home a few hours later.

The anger of the family is not it, not settled. “The driver explained that she had not seen Ethan because of the steamy windows, I do not really believe. We were still visible in the middle of the crosswalk, "says Catherine, also representative of parents of school Reaumur. Mom calls to the City more security on this axis, albeit not very popular with motorists, but not immune to accidents. A petition is also being developed. “Other schools receive ASVP while they are in the same situation, this is not right. This is not because the school is located down the street there is no risk. "

Good Samaritan, Mrs. Catherine was accustomed to cross other children. “I will continue but I will take this time a yellow vest. It is still unusual to have to do the work of the officers of the City. "Full of history, the day before the accident, the flashing signs alerting to the presence of children had been installed near the facility but were not yet operational.

The City, however, seems to have taken the measure of the incident, the mother having been received in the day Wednesday by the deputy mayor in charge of southern Martin demised sector.

A call to parents

Clement Stengel, deputy mayor in charge of security, is currently gathering all the elements relating to the accident. “To study the possibilities of making this school a monitored item. It does not close the door to this solution but it has to be justified, "he says.

Twenty schools are not monitored by ASVP against sixty which themselves are. In some areas, there are even two ASVP as or instead Vogel Boulevard. “Unfortunately, we cannot monitor all given the number of ASVP (nearly 100) who also have other missions continues Stengel. You think to identify individuals, possibly parents in reflective vest who could handle the monitoring and would be equipped. Not systematically but in addition ASVP by a system of rotation, for example. Nothing is decided but it is under consideration. "

Because safety is everyone's business, police territory also asks the population to exercise caution and vigilance when traveling.

First, it is better to wear light colored clothing with reflective strips for visibility. It is also better to go for short clothing to avoid tripping.

The yellow jackets in the colors of South union

Two dozen people distributed leaflets at the entrance of the Leclerc hypermarket on Saturday morning. They denounce the harassment allegedly suffered several employees and former employees every day.

Saturday morning about 10 am a group of 20 to 25 people between the Leclerc store where hundreds of people are shopping. Venues show, they leave the yellow fluorescent reflective jackets in the colors of South union then distribute leaflets “and inform customers of the situation in which employees work," said Samuel, secretary of the Inter Trade Union Solidarity South. Protesters denounce acts of harassment allegedly suffered "many employees and former employees from management and some managers."

South Solidarity

The group is mainly composed of South Solidarity trade unionists from Maubeuge, Jeumont. Some former employees wear safety vests are also present. Samuel cautions that "ten complaints were filed harassment and two cases to industrial tribunals.”

"I left the store in August 2015, said Olivier. I became depressed because of disparaging thoughts. I was in the book department; once elected to the union, I was forced to change..."

Margot has worked "for 15 days with my mother. She got sick. She was fired for misconduct because the director invented she had insulted him."

A group of 5 employees calls us to defend the management. "We are shocked to see an event like this on our workplace, said the head of the radius fruits and vegetables Laurent. In this group there are people who have worked in this store 15 days, no more. We decided not to respond to this; it is estimated that if the worry is before the tribunal that it is set and not here." The police in reflective vest said.

An anonymous call

Protesters left around 11:45 am.

Yesterday afternoon we were contacted by telephone by someone claiming to work "for the Leclerc press office." According to this man, who wished to remain anonymous, the company did not receive any notification of complaint for harassment.

Is all clothing allowed the office? Take safety vest when go out

In recent days, it's hot, very hot. And from Lille to Bordeaux via Paris, Bourges, temperatures are not ready to go down. A real torture for employees who would like to give up tie suit or costume, especially when their offices are not air conditioned. But have we the right, in France, to come in tank top, shorts and flip-flops, or safety vest on outside?

If no legal text formally prohibited, no not permitted. Freedom to dress as we want it is not a fundamental freedom. This means that this "freedom" is provided in some basic documents as the Constitution.

The employer is not true, unless specific job, all rights on the way its employees are expected to come to work. Article L1121-1 of the Code stipulates that: "No one can bring to human rights and individual and collective liberties that are not justified by the nature of the task and proportionate to the aim pursued".

Clearly, the employer may restrict freedom of dress for reasons of safety or contacts with customers or image. For example, a worker must wear his reflective vest and safety shoes, a stewardess, uniform supplied thereto and a notary clerk will avoid flip flops and shirt.

So, an employee who is not working with clients can he, he, come dressed as he wants? Not quite! In 2001, a technical office, who worked out of contact with customers, was dismissed because it was allowed to come to work in shorts. The Supreme Court agreed with the company. Customers are therefore regularly in local man was in indirect contact with them, which could harm the company's image. And it needs to wear reflective clothes when they need to go out.

The ideal is to check the company's internal regulations. Indeed, if an outfit is expressly prohibited, it must have been submitted to the staff representatives and view the premises. But to avoid any odd, the ideal is for a man to come in elegant but casual attire like a suit without a tie, linen trousers, and a slightly loose shirt. The women, they, more spoiled for choice. Once their holding remains suitable, of course. The mini-skirt in the office, it can get messy.

New traffic law: motorcyclist wear safety vest will be safer

Motorcycle riders are the most clueless with the new traffic law.

Yesterday was quite normal driving without retro reflective clothing and no lights on their vehicles to see.

Both are requirements circulation any time of day and disrespect carries a fine of ¢ 47,000 for each violation.

Diego Herrera, director of the Traffic Police, confirmed that the non-use of safety vest or any other suit was one of the repeated violations s yesterday.

Furthermore, it is common to see that drivers take advantage of the dams to advance in the middle of the road.

Under the new traffic rule, who forth between lines of vehicles more than 25 kilometers per hour is exposed to a fine of ¢ 94,000.

The new provisions do not like at all drivers who complain of being forced to use safety devices at all times.

However, Silvia, director of the Road Safety Council, explained that the use of this device throughout the day approved the recommendation of the Motorcycle Importers Association.

"As there are sunny days, there is very dark or rainy days, when clarity is drastically reduced and it is necessary to make them visible," said Bolanos.

It is planned that next Tuesday discusses the regulations with the specifications of the retro reflective vest; then it would take public consultation (through publication in La Gaceta) and is expected to govern two weeks later.

Another complaint is that motorcyclists are forced to turn on the lights at any time and that represents an additional expense of battery. But Bolanos said the battery of the bike "generates one, and there is no justification for saying that consumption increases."
