What is the most interesting aspect of their answers is that both officers indicate a greater level of experience and/or education than they report having. The implications of that may point to a training deficit and reveal that the officers were not wholly prepared for the rigors of their job when they began it. On the other hand, it may simply reflect an admiration for their colleagues who came to the job from the military and/or with greater educational backgrounds that may have permitted them to embrace the more difficult aspects of the job with a reduced number of mistakes. Either way, it certainly indicates that there may be a need for greater training or enhanced applicant requirements, to ensure that officers are fully prepared for their jobs. In fact, when asked about his regrets, officer one stated, "I regret not enlisting with the military. I think the experience and training would have helped my career."
One of the more revealing aspects of the interview was when the officers were asked about their family support networks. Officer one indicated that he...
Officer two indicated that his family was not as supportive, but instead had mixed feelings about his involvement in law enforcement. Given that officer two was newly married and expecting a child, it seems natural that his family, especially his immediate family, would be in a period of adjustment regarding his occupation. However, if officer two's lack of total family support is not merely the result of his changing family situation, it would be interesting to see if that resulted in a lower level of job satisfaction in the long-term.
At the time of the interview, it was clear that officer two did not consider total family support to be a necessary component of job satisfaction. When asked about his regrets, officer two stated, "I regret nothing to date. I hope that time never comes." This answer reveals something that was clear in both officers' interviews; whatever stress and strain officers may experience, they truly enjoy their jobs.
Police Officer Occupation Research Recently, 163 police officers have been laid off in Camden and the community most certainly feeling the impact -- as "callers to 911 who report things like home burglaries or car break-ins are asked to file a report over the phone or at police headquarters; officers rarely respond in person" (Goldstein, 2011). When police officers are laid off and removed from the community, like in Camden, the
police officers have discretion when dealing with domestic violence? Answer: YES with qualifications. An in-person survey might work best here because citizens don't all see police as protectors of society; some see them as threats. Discretion is lately recognized as a "necessary evil" according to the police science faculty at North Carolina Wesleyan College (ncwc.edu). Discretion can be put to effective use in a domestic violence situation when it is
Retirement Interview Analysis Retirement is a period of life only made possible for large numbers of people by virtue of the tremendous improvement in human health in the last century. Prior to that, life expectancy for the average person was not much greater than their professionally productive years. Today, many people look forward to several decades of retirement after they leave the workforce. In many respects, the quality of life after
Ethics in Law Enforcement "Sometimes [police officers] may, and sometimes may not, lie when conducting custodial interrogations. Investigative and interrogatory lying are each justified on utilitarian crime control grounds. Police are never supposed to lie as witnesses in the courtroom, although they may lie for utilitarian reasons similar to those permitting deception & #8230;" (Skolnick, et al., 1992) Is it ethical for law enforcement officers to use deception during the interrogation process?
A task question aids in description. This might include a request to draw a map or show how a task is accomplished. Further data can be gleaned through extension questions such as "tell me more about…," encouragement comments such as "go on…, yes?, and Uh huh?" And example questions such as "can you give me an example of…" Some preliminary interview questions developed for this study include: 1) Tell me
Police Officer Houston Police Department (Houston City) A police officer holds the responsibility of maintaining peace and enforcing laws in the community he/she is assigned to.
