The methods of employing a person as a police officer or a prison guard, the conditions of his enlistment for service, his personal liability to the public, the direct responsibility he bears towards the public and the law, the many other powers granted to him upon his enlistment, his special conditions of service, the discipline that binds him and the severe disciplinary punishment, the methods of discharge and dismissal from service - all of these are completely different from what is accepted in the field of labor relations, whether the employer is private. Or whether it is public.
Due to the special nature of the positions of the police and the prison service in society, and due to the great responsibility associated with the position of a police officer or prison guard, the methods of recruitment, duties, powers, and discipline of a police officer or prison guard are determined by a special law, distinct from the rest of the civil servants.
