CBC News (Canada) 4/11/2023 News Why are members of An Garda Síochána resigning? A Case Study into the experiences and views of former members REPUBLIC OF IRELAND: In 2022, 107 members of Garda rank resigned from An Garda Síochána. To date, (October 2023) 106 Garda members have resigned. In March 2023, the Garda Representative Association (GRA) decided to contact some of these individuals to ascertain the reasons behind their decisions to resign. Until May of 2023, Garda management had not begun to conduct exit interviews so it was felt by the GRA that this information was vital to better understand why the Garda organisation now finds itself in an unprecedented retention crisis. This study seeks to explore the phenomenon of members of the national police service, An Garda Síochána, resigning in unprecedented numbers, particularly in the past 18 months to two years. The purpose of the research is to explore with a sample of resigned Garda members their reasons for leaving and the various issues that impacted on those decisions. It is anticipated that the knowledge and data generated from this study would afford new insights into police attrition rates, in particular that of the Irish context. This research employed a qualitative case study methodology to illustrate the phenomenon under investigation. Participants of this study included a selected group consisting of 40 former Garda members.
