Police Association of New South Wales’ Post

👮♂️ Behind the uniform lies a story of resilience, sacrifice, and challenges we often don’t see. From long, gruelling hours to the lack of essential resources, our police force faces hurdles impacting their professional and personal lives. 💼⏰ Yet, their dedication remains unwavering, serving us day and night despite it all. It’s time to recognize their efforts and start the conversation on how we can support them better. 💬 How can we help improve conditions for our police force? Share your thoughts below. #UnsungHeroes #SupportOurPolice #ServeAndProtect #BehindTheBadge

Cities deploying our technology are observing an immediate reduction in unsafe parking in No Parking zones. A hidden benefit is that this is a productivity tool that allows police departments to allocate resources to urgent matters.

What is a police super-complaint? In this post, we explore the super-complaints system. Tomorrow, we will publish a joint report with the Independent Office for Police Conduct and College of Policing in response to a super-complaint made by Suzy Lamplugh Trust.

Excellent article about Police-Press interaction. What I found interesting is the advice provided is really just what anyone should do in a healthy relationship: 1. Communicate clearly, consistently, and often 2. Anticipate issues and plan accordingly 3. Operate and communicate with and from a position of mutual respect 4. Set realistic and reasonable expectations 5. Be willing to give a little to get a little 6. Communicate afterwards to assess what worked and what didn’t 7. Oh….if I didn’t already say it…communicate. While written for Police, I do like that the article offers guidance for the press as well. These principles can be utilized by leadership not just with the press during events, but even during internal crisis management or daily communication.

Dear Readers, As we see turbulence and protesting, we in liberal democracies around the world have to consider the perspective of members of the security agencies that maintain order in our societies. It occurred to me that the police in our society, do not inherently want to be tools of oppression, but rather have a responsibility to protect the stability of our society. From this, I created this video to ask people how do we balance order and freedom? Regards, Steven Hanssen

You probably have a good idea of what Defiance police officers do...But do you know why they do it? Chief Todd Shafer, Officer Mitch McClure, Patrolman Levi Pauli, Officer Mark Janowiecki, Officer Frank Herbert and K9 Officer Mojo tell why they protect and serve. Watch the video till the end to see how you can apply to the Defiance PD.

Although written from a chief of police perspective, this could easy convey to military change of commands/leadership roles and cooperate executive positions. Incredible insight from a great leader.

I tend to agree with this Policing Insight article that moving to a national police force will solve many of policing's problems. However it will likely be the largest piece of transformation policing has seen in this country - No easy task to manage at a time of great political change in the UK. I suspect conflicting priorities between individual forces will ensure this never happens. But some strides can be made and perhaps policing will end up meeting somewhere in the middle by implementing initiatives such as; standardised IT across the forces, closer cohesion and resource sharing at regional level (perhaps regional mergers?) and improved data sharing and integration to name a few.
