Matoz Advocates for Police Staffing and Salary System Reform
During a presentation to the Slovenian National Assembly’s (DZ) Committee for Internal Affairs and Public Administration, Franci Matoz, candidate for Minister, highlighted significant staffing shortages within the police force. He proposed a comprehensive overhaul of the career system for police officers, emphasizing the need for improvements within the sector. Matoz outlined a potential framework for salary structures across the public sector.
He suggested the establishment of distinct salary systems for police, the army, healthcare, education, culture, and social welfare services. However, he indicated that the unified salary system would remain operational primarily at the administrative level of public sector employment. Following his initial remarks, Matoz clarified that any reform of the public sector salary system should be coupled with “strengthening the incentive work related to performance.” This suggests a focus on rewarding officers based on their achievements and contributions.
The presentation centered on addressing current challenges within the Slovenian police and shaping a more effective and responsive public sector compensation system. Matoz’s proposals are expected to be a key topic of discussion as the committee evaluates his candidacy for Minister.
