Belfast Live 12/2/2021 News Supporting officers’ mental health and well-being during the pandemic USA: In our 2019 report, An Occupational Risk: What Every Police Agency Should Do to Prevent Suicide Among Its Officers, PERF recommended that law enforcement leaders make employees’ mental health care a priority and provide robust officer wellness programming. The need for such programs has increased dramatically over the past 11 months. The COVID-19 pandemic and the often violent protests following the killing of George Floyd have increased the stress on police officers and sheriffs’ deputies in countless ways. And the deaths by suicide of two officers following the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol were tragic reminders of the consequences of traumatic events in policing. In response to these new stressors, many agencies are taking steps to help their members and ensure they receive needed support in this difficult environment. Today’s Critical Issues Report summarizes what some agencies are doing and provides resources that departments may find helpful. Police Executive Research Forum 12/2/2021 Report Why Did You Become A Police Officer? Entry-Related Motives and Concerns of Women and Men in Policing As police agencies in the United States suffer declining applications and struggle to recruit women, the National Institute of Justice has identified workforce development as a priority research area. To recruit more effectively, we must understand what attracts people to policing and what deters them. We surveyed officers in two Midwestern police departments (n = 832) about entry motivations and concerns and examined gender differences. Serve/protect motivations were most important for men and women, though women rated the category significantly higher. Women and non-White officers rated legacy motives higher than did males and White officers. Women reported more concerns overall and scored higher on job demands and acceptance concerns; officers of color also reported more acceptance concerns than White officers. The largest gender differences were associated with gender-related obstacles and stereotypes (e.g., discrimination; being taken seriously; physical demands), indicating recruitment reform necessarily includes improving systemic issues.
