Government of Ireland 16/10/2023 News Removals of ‘Dangerous’ Mobile EU Citizens: Public Order and Security as a Police Paradigm Despite being frequently invoked in everyday police work and immigration enforcement to justify coercive measures, public order and security remains an ambiguous legal concept. For EU citizens, the Citizens’ Rights Directive stipulates public order and security grounds to provide a higher threshold against removals than criminal convictions alone. However, the removal grounds for EU citizens were founded on even less than criminal convictions in analysis of 100 removal orders for mobile Estonian and Romanian citizens in Finland. Ultimately, the removal orders relied on the assumption of future crimes and invoked a conception of ‘dangerous individuals’ with criminal tendencies, even based on single minor offences and administrative penal orders without criminal convictions. Notwithstanding various legal meanings, I argue that the required public order and security grounds for the removal of EU citizens corresponded to police conceptions of mobile populations as a potential source of criminality and a threat to social order. Social and Legal Studies 16/10/2023 Research article Work-Related Stressors Associated with Emergency Calls to the Fire and Rescue Service Operators and Police Operators of the Czech Republic Little interest has been shown in the stressors that impact emergency call operators, which can lead to inadequate training. We focus on members of the Czech Fire and Rescue Service (n = 145) and the Czech Police (n = 149) that handle emergency calls. We hypothesized that the most significant stressors would be calls involving suicidal intent and calls involving injured children. We further hypothesized that there would be differences in the perceived stressors based on gender and component of the integrated rescue system (IRS) (i.e., Police vs. Fire and Rescue Service). In-depth interviews with IRS managers were conducted to uncover specific work-related stressors. The stressors identified were evaluated through an online questionnaire using a six-point Likert scale. The results showed that the worst stressors were calls with suicidal intent, calls where the location of the caller was unclear or unknown, and calls involving injured children. Based on a factor analysis of stressors, eight categories were explored: Threat to life, Non-emergency calls, Communication, Noise, Localization, Understanding, Children and seniors, and Time pressure. Three of the eight categories, Non-emergency calls, Communication, and Understanding, were perceived differently relative to the branch of the IRS, and two factors, Non-emergency calls and Understanding, were perceived differently relative to gender. The gender results of the study may be limited because gender distribution was not equal, i.e., there are generally fewer women in the IRS, especially in the Police branch. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Faculty of Biomedical Engineering, Czech Technical University of Prague. The individual respondents gave consent by responding to the questionnaire.
