西班牙新法生效在即:监狱工作人员正式成为执法人员、可获在职伤害赔偿

西班牙官方公报10月14日刊登第4/2026号组织法,修改1979年《监狱总法》第80条:西班牙监狱工作人员,无论属于国家还是自治区监狱系统,在履职时正式具有「执法人员」的法律地位。这项修改将于10月15日生效。
新法还规定,行政当局必须赔偿监狱工作人员在履职中遭受的损害;如果监狱工作人员本人被拘留或监禁,必须与普通在押人员分开关押,以保障其安全。
这项改革在西班牙讨论已久。监狱工作人员团体长期以来要求获得与警察等执法人员同等的法律地位,理由是他们在监狱内处理冲突和暴力事件时,法律身份一直不明确。
这部组织法在国会解散前完成立法程序,10月13日签署,次日在官方公报公布。它是10月14日官方公报的主要内容之一,同日刊登的还有为休达提供紧急财政支持的第30/2026号皇家法令等文件。(来源:西班牙《国家官方公报》)
Spain's New Law Makes Prison Officers Agents of Authority, With Compensation for Injuries on Duty
Spain's Official State Gazette published Organic Law 4/2026 on October 14, amending Article 80 of the 1979 General Penitentiary Law: prison officers in Spain, whether in the state or the autonomous-community prison systems, are legally recognized as agents of authority when exercising their duties. The change enters into force on October 15.
The law also requires the Administration to compensate prison officers for damages suffered in the line of duty, and provides that if a prison officer is detained or imprisoned, they must be held separately from the general inmate population for their own safety.
The reform had been debated in Spain for years. Prison staff associations long demanded the same legal status as police officers, arguing that their legal position was unclear when handling conflicts and violent incidents inside prisons.
The organic law completed its passage through parliament before the Cortes were dissolved; it was sanctioned on October 13 and published the following day. It was one of the main items in the October 14 Gazette, alongside the royal decree-law of urgent financial support for Ceuta. (Source: Official State Gazette (BOE), Spain)
