Female GCM officer in SP accuses superior of making threats and verbally abusing her during work in the streets; city hall says it has removed the aggressor
A female municipal guard in São Paulo reported threats and verbal abuse from her supervisor while on duty, leading to an investigation and temporary removal of the supervisor by city officials.
A female municipal guard (GCM) named Bianca Macedo Borges in São Paulo lodged a complaint against her direct supervisor Uildson Carmo de Moraes after experiencing threats and verbal abuse while performing her duties in the streets of the city. The incident occurred on the evening of the 19th, during her service in the Feira da Madrugada area of Brás, where Moraes allegedly humiliated her by insulting her and threatening physical harm. These allegations included derogatory names and threats of punitive action, which took place in front of other fellow guards, who were also noted as witnesses.
Bianca's account points to a troubling pattern of aggressive behavior from Moraes, stating that this was not an isolated incident but part of a history of intimidation and mistreatment she has faced. The inclusion of fellow guards as witnesses lends credibility to her claims and emphasizes the need for a thorough investigation into workplace conduct within the GCM. This situation raises broader questions about workplace ethics and the treatment of female officers in a male-dominated environment.
In response to Bianca's complaint, the São Paulo city hall announced that they have temporarily suspended Moraes from his position, indicating a commitment to addressing workplace harassment and protecting employees from aggressive superiors. This incident may catalyze discussions about improving measures against abuse and fostering a safer working environment for female officers in the GCM.
