Members of the Garda Representative Association are calling for shift arrangements brought in during the pandemic to be kept in place.
Gardaí now work a pattern of four 12-hour shifts per week, as opposed six 10-hour days.
The GRA says this has given frontline members a better work-life balance.
Junior Justice Minister, James Browne, says it's something An Garda Síochána needs to manage internally:
"I am certainly aware that the 12 hour shifts that the Garda Síochána went on to during COVID helped them an awful lot. It is a matter for An Garda Síochána themselves, I supposed to negotiate DR is going into the future, but I do know and I do understand that it has been something that's been quite positive for An Garda Síochána - those new rosters."
