The distribution of part of the new employees to the interior represents one of the main focuses of the call. This way, regional police stations gain more professionals and broader operational reach.
At the same time, the government signals new calls, as budget availability and the exam schedule allow. Therefore, the expectation remains high among approved candidates awaiting appointment.
Finally, by calling more than 130 new employees in this phase, Amazonas advances in strengthening security forces. Thus, the state maintains public exams as the main tool to expand its institutional role and ensure greater security for the population.
