An LSS officer’s activities are governed by laws and regulations and it has great power in influencing the individual's situation when reweaving its case. Officer’s actions have effects on the applicant and it can use its power and not look after the individual's best. Its interest can lie in community and his own position. This study deals with the officers’ ways to assess and officers in it are working for two different municipalities in Sweden. The purpose of this study is to determine if the assessment of the right to personal assistance is consistent with what the law stipulates. The intention is to find out whether it differs between different officers, that is, if the various municipalities relate to the same principles. If municipalities do not consider the same premises, there is a risk that the individual does not get the help that it needs. For this topic I used a vignette study, which aims to find out how people are reviewing different situations. Informants may have access to one or more hypothetical situation and were asked to answer questions and talk about how they appreciate the situation. In this study, the different municipalities gave different rulings.

Vår kropp är utrustad med alarmsystem som hindrar människan från skada, rädslan får oss uppmärksammad på faran och agerar därefter. Poliser befinner sig många gånger i utsatta situationer som kan bidra till känslomässigt svåra upplevelser, samtidigt uppfattas poliser som starka och många gånger odödliga. Forskning visar att det finns lite utrymme och acceptans till känsloyttringar inom den polisiära kulturen. Åtta poliser varav tre kvinnor intervjuades med fokus på deras upplevelse och hantering av rädsla i arbetet. Data som analyserades utifrån meningskoncentrering, visade att rädsla uppstår hos poliser i deras arbete, men att rädsla inte alltid uttalas. Rädsla tar sig olika uttryck och då främst i sättet att hantera den. Studien visade även att det finns attityder till rädsla bland poliser som bland annat innebär oro för negativa effekter av uttalad rädsla. I likhet med en studie av Christianson och Karlssons (2003) visade även denna studie att intervjupersonerna valde att tala om incidenter som inträffat under deras första år som polis. Om detta beror på habituering eller om intervjupersonerna lärt sig under sin karriär som polis att trycka undan känslor som inte går i linje med den polisiära kulturen låter författaren vara osagt.

Taiwan Island is surrender by ocean; the ninety percent of raw material for economic development depends on sea transportation. Thus, it is important to keep sea line of communication for using without any obstruction. As known, the most serious threat to sea line of communication of Taiwan is from submarine of PRC. However, the KNOX class frigate is the warship which is designed for ASW especially by USN. She is still the major ASW ship for Taiwan navy so far. For this reason, the officers working on the KNOX is the main objective to this case study for relationship between the job satisfaction and turnover intention. Consequently, the recommendation according to the study conclusion was provided. The method was used in this study were theory review, questionnaires, and statistics analysis which covered t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson product-moment correlation, and regression analysis. Accordingly, the study results are follows, A. The job satisfaction of officers was moderate and they were also precious to the current job without significant turnover tendency. B. For the demographic aspect, unexpectedly, female officers had higher job satisfaction than male ones. Unmarried officers had higher job satisfaction than married ones. The age between 26 and 30 years old officers had lower job satisfaction than others. C. The most significant influence of key factors on job satisfaction were career expectation, job perspective, fair reorganization, motivated strategy, and military culture. D. The negative relation was resulted from the job satisfaction and turnover intention of the KNOX officers.

Every five (5) years a small-embroidered star is carefully stitched onto the left sleeve of a Red Serge, proudly indicating an accumulation of service in the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (R.C.M.P.). Breaking the wash of scarlet with a flash of gold, that first star means so much to an officer. No longer a rookie with a junior ranking, it signifies a passage, a movement, a real commitment to devote oneself to a career in the Force. Perhaps this point may seem relatively minor but it is not the weight of the information presented that draws people in. It is more the creation of a perspective into a paramilitary organization known for its secrecy that makes such a fact appealing. I am almost certain, and perhaps even a bit hopeful that the next time you are at a public event where a typical ‘Mountie’ is present, your eyes will fall upon the red sleeves, looking for a star and upon finding one or two or none, by quietly pleased by the little secret you know. In my previous career as a Police Officer in the R.C.M.P., I often delighted in the sharing of the finer points that played a part in defining what it was to be an officer, especially with people I had known in my ‘civilian’ life or with those I had befriended while in the Force and now in my civilian capacity. When faced with the opportunity to enlighten people on aspects of the R.C.M.P., or the world of policing for that matter, I have always felt compelled to share my experiences and perspectives. With an education in Landscape Architecture, I now also enjoy sharing my experiences in the analysis of space and design when presented with that same opportunity. My research was already under way for a thesis/practicum on R.C.M.P. Detachment Design Guidelines in March 2005 when I first learned of the deaths of four R.C.M.P. officers in Northern Alberta. During the execution of a search warrant they had been ambushed and killed by the suspect who lay in wait for them. After participating in the massive memorial service that followed in Edmonton, AB., it soon became obvious to me that the focus of my research would change dramatically. Armed with the new skills I had gained from a Masters program in Landscape Architecture, I was faced with the educational opportunity to not only combine my two passions of policing and design, but also to honor the four R.C.M.P. officers in my own way.

In our society, police officers have been called upon to ensure compliance with the law and preserve social order. To complete this task, there are situations in which officers must use force. Since they must use force in some situations and because not every citizen is cooperative with the police, they are at risk for injury. Multiple studies have shown that tasers are beneficial to police officers in many ways, including a reduction in officer injuries. Most studies, however, observed injuries in only a few departments before and after implementation. This study examines whether or not agencies that authorize the use of tasers have lower injury rates compared to agencies that do not authorize the use of tasers in a large sample. This will be done through a cross-sectional research design using secondary data analysis. The data for this study comes from two sources, the 2008 Uniform Crime Reports and the 2007 Law Enforcement Management Administrative Statistics (LEMAS) survey. Results showed that the authorization of tasers by police departments was not a significant predictor of police injury rates. Although it is not a significant predictor in this study, an argument can still be made that tasers are effective at reducing injuries to police officers.
