The manager of BP Petroleum Company limited is seeking police protection for the duration of a strike, called by the Trade Union, who are protesting for increases in emoluments for their members- employees of BP. The Police suggested that a mobile patrol would be adequate, but the HR manager of BP insisted on permanent police presence, because of pending lawlessness by strikers. The manager then offered to compensate the Police, if they agree on a permanent Police presence on site, during the strike period.
The Police agreed to provide 10 officers at a rate of $500 per day, per officer, which they will maintain during the entire strike period.
BP later agreed with the Trade Union’s demand for increase emoluments and the strike was called off after 5 days. The Commissioner of Police within a week sent an invoice to BP for the 5 days that the Police provided protection.
However, BP refused to pay, and argued that the Police are under a duty to protect the company from any pending violence and lawlessness. Advise the Police on this matter.
