Militares pedem nivelamento de salário com outras carreiras

Em audiência pública na Comissão de Direitos Humanos e Legislação Participativa (CDH) do Senado, representantes dos militares ativos e aposentados debateram a defasagem na remuneração do setor. Ao final da audiência, o senador Paulo Paim (PT-RS), que a presidiu, prometeu encaminhar um documento com o pleito da categoria às autoridades competentes.

Segundo relatos dos participantes da audiência, desde a edição da Medida Provisória 2215/2001, a situação dos militares começou a se deteriorar progressivamente. A MP acabou com gratificações como adicional de inatividade e o chamado “posto acima” - promoção que o militar recebia ao passar para a reserva. Outros auxílios também foram retirados pela medida, como o auxílio moradia e a licença-prêmio.

O presidente da Associação dos Militares da Reserva, Reformados e Pensionistas das Forças Armadas, Genivaldo da Silva, citou essas perdas como um dos principais motivos da defasagem de remuneração.

- Por isso que nós estamos hoje com um salário superdefasado. E além dessas questões aqui citadas, nós ficamos dez anos sem um real de aumento – disse.

Genivaldo informou que um segundo-sargento das Forças Armadas ganha R$ 2,7 mil com 30 anos de serviço. Um capitão das Forças Armadas recebe R$ 5,3 mil – salário considerado baixo se comparado a outras categorias.

- Ganha menos do que um soldado da Polícia Militar do DF e dos Bombeiros, que são excelentes profissionais. Nós tiramos o chapéu para eles, mas não podemos ganhar menos do que eles.

Salário-família

Outra reclamação recorrente durante a audiência foi o salário-família que os militares recebem para ajudar no custeio da educação de seus dependentes, no valor de apenas R$ 0,16 por filho. A presidente da Federação da Família Militar, Rita Deinstmann, comparou o benefício ao que recebe a família de um presidiário.

- Por que o dependente de um presidiário recebe R$ 915 e nós recebemos R$ 0,16? É uma vergonha! – reclamou.

O senador Rodrigo Rollemberg (PSB-DF) esteve na audiência e deu apoio aos militares. Para ele, a valorização da categoria deve ser uma questão de interesse nacional, devido à importância do trabalho no país. Segundo o senador, a defesa de riquezas como a Amazônia e o pré-sal é um imenso desafio para o Brasil, que conta com as Forças Armadas.

- Hoje vivemos num ambiente de paz, e todos nós torcemos para permanecer assim. Mas a gente sabe que não pode se descuidar para uma eventualidade de o Brasil ter que defender o seu território ou suas riquezas. Portanto, a questão dos militares não é uma questão apenas dos militares – afirmou Rollemberg.

Paim sugeriu a realização de uma reunião com a categoria em seu gabinete para formular um documento com o pleito dos militares e prometeu todo o apoio para sensibilizar as autoridades competentes.

- Farei de tudo para ajudar para que os pleitos cheguem lá e que, oxalá, eles sejam efetivamente atendidos – prometeu.

CDH debate situação de militares reformados e pensionistas (Da Redação)

Começou a audiência pública da Comissão de Direitos Humanos e Legislação Participativa (CDH) para debater a situação de militares reformados e pensionistas. O senador Paulo Paim (PT-RS), autor do requerimento para realização do debate, afirmou que o tema é urgente, pois os militares são os servidores mais mal remunerados do país.

- Os militares sempre tiveram uma remuneração modesta, mas depois de 2001 a situação começou a piorar gradativamente – lamentou Paim em seu discurso em Plenário na última sexta (22).

Paim lembrou, logo no início da reunião, que a realização dessa audiência é um compromisso assumido quando ainda era presidente da CDH. Em fevereiro deste ano, ele foi substituído na função pela senadora Ana Rita (PT-ES), que também terá dois anos de mandato.

Foram convidados para o debate o representante da Associação de Praças das Forças Armadas (APRAFA), Antonio Vicente da Silva; e os presidentes da Federação da Família Militar do DF (FAMIL), Cantidio Rosa Dantas; da Comissão Nacional QESA Brasil (CNQB), Eduardo Souza Silva; da Associação dos Militares da Reserva, Reformados e Pensionistas das Forças Armadas (AMARP), Genivaldo da Silva; da União Nacional de Esposas de Militares das Forças Armadas (UNEMFA), Ivone Luzardo; da Federação da Família Militar - Mulher/DF (FAMIL Mulher), Rita Deinstmann; e da Confederação Nacional da Família Militar (CONFAMIL), Waldemar da Mouta.

A audiência está sendo realizada na sala 2 da Ala Senador Nilo Coelho e é presidida por Paulo Paim.

South Carolina National Guard Soldiers, and fire department/EMS rescuers with the S.C. Helicopter Aquatic Rescue Team (SC-HART) program, S.C. Urban Search and Rescue Task Force 1 (SC-TF1), perform hoist-training operations during the preliminary phases of “Patriot South Exercise 2017” (Patriot South 17), a joint training-exercise focused on natural disaster-response and preparedness, Gulfport and Port Bienville Industrial Complex (PBIC), Mississippi, Jan. 29, 2017. Patriot South 17 is taking place at multiple locations across Mississippi, from January 23 through February 7, 2017, and it offers the National Guard and its local and federal partners a realistic-training opportunity to test response capabilities, procedures, and readiness through a simulated hurricane and Tsunami scenario “hitting the coastal areas of the state.” Specifically, in preparation for future operations, South Carolina’s Headquarters and Headquarters and (-) Company A 2-151st Security and Support Aviation Battalion, 59th Aviation Troop Command, deployed both its current HART-capable platforms, the UH-60L Black Hawk utility helicopter and its LUH-72A Lakota light utility helicopter--the latter being a recent addition to the HART program for South Carolina.

Icebreakers throughout our time abroad often consisted of a deck of cards anywhere, everywhere and with everyone.
