Police and Prisons Civil Rights Union (POPCRU) Details
About Us Historical Overview: Police and Prisons Civil Rights Union [POPCRU] is a trade union movement in South Africa operating within the South African Police Service [SAPS], the Department of Correctional Services [DCS] and the Traffic component. POPCRU represents more than hundred and forty thousand Police, Correctional and Traffic Officials. This gigantic movement was established under the founder and first President, comrade Gregory on 05 November 1989 at the height of the liberation struggle within the country. Prior to the establishment of POPCRU, institutional racism was entrenched within the Public Service and the three departments where it operates were the implementers of such atrocious practices. There was huge salary disparities amongst various racial groupings, Blacks being the least paid. There were serious challenges with regard to promotion of those who were regarded as inferior race – Blacks. Poor housing facilities for Black members, such that some Black correctional officials were housed in prison cells. Collective bargaining was a pipe dream within these sectors.
