Herald Express 5/11/2021 News Perceived Work Engagement and Performance Amongst Police Officers During the Covid-19 Pandemic in Hong Kong Although work-related stress among police officers during the Coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has been examined in recent studies, empirical studies of the impacts of multiple stressors on police officers’ work engagement and performance during this difficult time have been scarce.

The regression results indicated that the impact of supervisor support was significantly and positively associated with both work outcomes. Operational stressors had a significant negative impact on the two work outcomes, and supervisor support had no moderating effect on the relationships between the various stressors and the two work outcomes.

Policing: A Journal of Policy and Practice - Registration at source 5/11/2021 Research article A New Generation of Police Officers: Experiences of Student Officers Undertaking the Police Constable Degree Apprenticeship in One UK Police Force The Policing Vision 2025 and 2030 outlined long-term strategies to ensure consistency and accreditation in those joining policing careers in England and Wales, standardizing the qualifications obtained by all new recruits. The Police Educational Qualifications Framework has since been designed to support this vision, enabling three new entry routes into policing, one being the Police Constable Degree Apprenticeship. This resulted in policing becoming a graduate profession from 2020, which is argued to be a radical transformation for policing. This research conducted focus groups and thematic analysis with three cohorts of student police officers (N = 30) undertaking the Police Constable Degree Apprenticeship (PCDA) at different stages of their programme in one police force. It unpicked motivations for joining the PCDA, their experiences so far and improvements for future workings of the programme. The disconnect between policing and academia was a key barrier, and students could not always utilize the academic teaching in practical policing settings.
