Discipline in the public services enforces a sense of Duty and Honour when going out for parades, on tour or even just around the cities and towns.

Conformity- when you change your behaviour or actions to fit in with people around you, people will tend to do anything for a person working in the public service department as long as they have their uniform on.

Uniforms are using in public services to also show conformity as uniforms are an compulsory element in the public service as people can be easily recognised by the public.…

There are many dangers concerning the work of a police officer. Officers face various types of dangers and risk. When a person signs up to become an officer of the law, they already know the nature of the job means that they will be putting themselves at risk of different dangers. Possessing the job of protecting others and keeping peace within the community is a risk in itself. Some of these dangers that officers face every day of their lives are health problems like getting the following high blood pressure, insomnia, increased levels of destructive hormones, heart problems, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and a big one is suicide and this is from the stress of the job (Zink, 2012). It does not only affect an officer’s physical health but also their mental health and with that is where suicide can come into the picture. Driving is also another danger that an officer faces because they can crash or get hit while on a traffic stop due to other drivers either not paying attention to what they are doing, not knowing how to drive, or they are under the influence of something; not the officer but the other driver. A big danger is getting hurt on the job in some way or another and even death. Officers face different people every day that can be in bad situations like fighting, on some type of drug, or just plain hate life and the…

Just as military employees are held to the highest level of integrity and knowledge of the laws that govern them; San Diego Police Department require the same attributes in their employees. The legal and/or ethical concerns that may arise within the training program for SDPD and military employees are its confrontational training environment and group thinking mentality. The confrontational environment creates a negative interpersonal atmosphere. The strict controlled environment causes the recruits to fear the instructors, which is counterproductive in a learning environment. Men who have experienced military service tend to score lower than civilian counterparts on measures of agreeableness — a dimension of personality that influences our ability to be pleasant and accommodating in social situations (Jackson, 2012). Furthermore, The training programs are usually managed and taught in groups or platoon settings; the group environment of training creates an environment of group thinking and minimizes the individuality. Social Psychologist, Irving L. Janis refers “Group thinking” as a “psychological phenomenon in which people strive for consensus within a group. In many…
When I joined the police department, I knew I wanted to be a part of something great. I wanted to leave a legacy and make an impression on others. I was the first in my family to choose a career in law enforcement, so initially, I was unaware of the challenges this career field came with. My mom was a teacher, and my dad worked in the printing business. Both were successful in their chosen fields, but they were blind to the demands required for a fulfilling career in law enforcement. To be successful, I would need to be observant of those around me who had found success. I would need to mirror their ways and incorporate their habits into my own. I would need to learn from their failures. Most importantly, I would need to learn what made them…
In the daily life of police officers, the day can begin with abject boredom and transform into harrowing danger. There is never a pattern to what may occur. Many come into a police career with the desire to help others and make a difference in their community or even the world. During the time when I began my career as an officer, there was a push for professionalism and a return to protecting and serving of the public. This came from the decades of racism, enforcement of white supremacy, and using officers as a way to take civil liberties. During the latter portion of the eighties and early nineties, professional police service was the work ethic being installed into new police officers. Throughout my career, I have witnessed a change from professional teachings, to more militarized elitist teachings. This has been particularly evident in the past ten years. In past studies, researchers have found attitudes toward police have been mainly cultivated through officer interaction with people, and through media effects (Mazerolle, et al., 2013, Avdija & Giever, 2010). However, it is my belief that things have significantly changed with regards…
