The Differences Between Police Sector And Private Sector

The current efforts made by the police

Question:

What Is The Deference’s Police Sector And Private Sector ?

It is the duty of the Police officers to take actions against any person who has indulges themselves in any kind of crime. This often means that when an arrest is made it has to be valid and the ground of committing a crime has to exist (Brown and Saeed 2015). The police have to be able to justify the reasons for making the arrest. In some circumstances there is certain positive approach made that are better and more appropriate. Domestic abuse takes place when the conduct of the person is not amounting to a criminal offence and the criminal justice has a possible outcome.

The public sectors are lacking behind in the private sectors in developing measures in the performance that would help in the evaluation as well as the accountability. Few methods have been adopted and are available. Police are not alone in this consideration. It is currently only that the police have seriously been concerned with the effects and the measures of the performance. This essay highlights various methods that have been adopted by the police to give out an systematic as well as effective result in their regulation (Brunson and Gau 2015).

This essay will first criticize the efforts made currently and then evaluate the individual performance. The police department is not very well acquainted with the individual performance. There are many police departments that have made no efforts to assess the performances at all. The self protective nature of the police has led them to abandon them.

The first option can be considered as the “characteristic of measure”  it is very common in its use and nature. This is a measure used by the police that are more of internal than external in its functioning (Hills 2014). It is done by the method of supervision. There is often an involvement of the police but it is indirect. They are mostly related to the subjective assessment rather than the objective. The evaluation has currently used instruments that refer to the general qualities and the law of enforcement. There are factors on which the officers have been rated and will have very less to do with what the police have to do during the time of parole (Huq, Jackson and Trinkner 2016).

In cases where there are activities in relation to the patrol they have t be restricted in accordance to the law of enforcement. There are two drawbacks in relation to this firstly, other important activities in relation to the patrol gets ignored and secondly, the indications from which the performances are drawn have an undue influence on the method of the tabulation rates, instead of looking at the process through which the rates are made.

While focusing on the crime related matters there are distribution of resources that have to be practices and can have interference in obtaining the goals of the police (McIlroy 2017). It believes in the view that crime is not only the responsibility of the police but the public too. To get police to take total responsibility for these highly complex issues over which they have limited effects makes the police defensive and creates isolation among them.

Evaluation of individual performance

In 1950, the shift that was made towards a more bureaucratic police is in a way not professionalism that includes and highlights the rules, procedures, planning and the records. Objective measures of productivity as the key performances. One of the major problems faced are in the area of evaluation of the data. The police department usually tries to put more emphasis in punishing the guilty rather than rewarding the successful one. Organizations find it easier to do such things where it is easier to define the failure than to acknowledge the success. The failure to live up to the standards is easier to see (McKenna 2014). Norms are more focused in the quality and involve a degree and are more conductive in rewarding the success. The police supervisors generally look after the people that cause trouble than the people that will give rewards for the success.

There is strong protection for the job that are given by the civil officers in order to promote the high risk in relation to memorizing the law and the police isolations that have been considered as a little boost to broadly develop the system of evaluation (Prakash and Vanathi 2014). There is a large need to make developments in the area other than the law enforcement.

There are various alternative ways of dealing with prosecution. Cautions are never appropriate in an offence (Taylor 2014). They have a nature of which indicated the breach of trust and are reported on the very first occasion. Thus, charge is always a preferred option in the case where the interest of the public is passed as well as the evidence is there. It is believed that if there is sufficient evidence to caution there will be sufficient evidence charge the offender with. There can be public reasons or other interests for not proceeding with the prosecution in specific cases. It is in this specific case that the caution can be considered as an alternative to the NFA (Rahm et al. 2013).

Cautions can be deemed to be appropriate at the disposal and this can be done only when the evidential test has been passed and the followings have been considered:

• That the police has some evidence there has been some offence and it checks that there are no other report or intelligence of previous abuse of the victim, his previous partners or their family members
• The seriousness of the offence has to be considered along with its penalties
• It is also essential to see the history of the offender and his prior relation in the conviction made out of court
• The investigation has to be reviewed by the officer in charge only if he is content with the fact that there is no future potential for the development in the investigation area
• The police also has to see if there has been any criminal justice sanctions
• The view of the victim is required under the Ministry of Justice (2015) Code of Practice for Victims of Crime; the police can ask the victim their view and takes them into consideration while making any decision.

Cautions should not be an alternative to be used because they are considered to be an easy way out in relation to the building of the prosecution file. If the threshold of the proof and evidence has been passed the case will then be referred to the CPS in accordance with the Directors Guidance on Charging, in order to make the case progressive. The Supervisor had to carefully scrutinize the cautions that have to be regulated in case of criminal offences.

The performance measures for the individual as well as the organization is crucial for the understanding the nature of the workings of the police department and its functions and regulations. These methods opted by the police emphasis on the compatibility and the trade offs among the goals that have to be achieved. They focus on the various segments in the community in relation to its landscape as well as or the social issue like race, age and so on, these matters get equal service from the police.

Methods adopted by the police

The areas that are week or strong can be identified. There is obviously no simple answer to the reforms that involve various trade off that are present (Van, Merckelbach and Smeets 2015). One approach can be said to be “the kind of peoples approach” it is concerned with the better education of the police. The other approach focuses on altering the roles of the police that is restricting it to the law of enforcement. Another focus is on the approach of organization making arrangements for decentralization or regionalization (Walker, Garrard and Jowitt 2014). Yet there are other approaches that are being focused in altering the authority patterns in increasing the power of the mayor or the city council or the citizen groups against that of the chief or the patrolmen association by changing the requirements for the civil services.

There is still one more change in respect to the police and its relation with the reward structure. By default, police are left with many services and their tasks and its conflicting situations (Wood et al. 2014). The value and the relative nature is the main issue concerning the goals of the police. The strict civil liberty focuses on the different aspect of the police and its performance. The first priority of the police is to make the people safe. Officers have to be able to justify their reason of making the decision of arresting or not arresting an offender. In some situations, there are certain positive approaches made that are very appropriate for example, the behavior that does not amount to the criminal nature or the activity. Police have to consider the risk level in accordance with the national decision model.
