Emergency Services Times 10/10/2024 News Understanding and addressing sexual- and gender-based harassment and discrimination among Royal Canadian Mounted Police The current study sought to examine experiences of gender- and sexual-based harassment and discrimination within the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), and what changes, if any, RCMP think are needed to address these issues within the organization. A representative sample of serving RCMP (n = 870; 72.6% men; 83.6% White) answered an open-ended survey question examining participants’ perspectives of how the RCMP can work to eliminate harassment and discrimination in RCMP workplaces. Responses were analyzed inductively, using an open-coding approach. Thematic analysis was used to identify themes and frequency analysis was performed to assess for recurrent concrete recommendations. Three themes were identified: Walking the Talk: Broad Accountability; Out with the Old, in with the New: Largescale Cultural Change; and Alternative Perspective: An Exaggerated or Non-Existent Problem. The most common concrete recommendations were to enforce actual consequences (n = 172), to have more effective leadership (n = 138), and to change the promotion process (n = 116). The current results indicate that many RCMP conceptualize gender- and sexual-based harassment and discrimination within the RCMP as a two-tiered problem, involving the actions of individual perpetrators and insufficient organizational responses to those actions. Results further evidence individual and structural hegemonically masculine elements within the RCMP organizational culture. Participant suggestions provide possible actionable solutions. Police Practice and Research - Subscription at source 10/10/2024 Research article Missing children, adolescents and young adults: the relationship between age first missing, subsequent missing person reports and other police-related contacts over a 10-year period It is well documented that children and young people are disproportionately represented in missing person reports, frequently as repeat cases. However, inconsistent definitions around age groupings have compromised our ability to compare across studies, or meaningfully synthesise the available evidence. This study sought to explore the relationship between age at first missing and police contacts in a sample of 2,125 Australian children (0–12 years), adolescents (13–17 years), and young adults (18–25 years) who went missing for the first time in 2005. Individuals were followed-up over a 10-year period using police records. A comparison of justice involvement across the three age groups revealed key differences in missing person episodes and other justice-related involvement. Collectively, the findings offer further insights into the characteristics and justice trajectories of young people who go missing to help inform further evidence-based, risk assessment and related police responses.
