Burnout and post traumatic stress disorder among Greek and Cypriot police officers
Summary:
Aim: To investigate the effects of the exposure of police officers to stressors and/or traumatic events on their professional functionality.
Methods: A total of 206 police officers were involved in the study, from the police academies of Greece and from the Special Antiterrorist Platoon of Cyprus (SAP). The MBI scale, the MINI interviews Scale, the CES-D Scale, the COPE inventory and a questionnaire with demographic information was used.
Results: Α statistically significant difference was found between the police academies of Greece and the SAP in the emotional exhaustion subscale (p=0.046) and the personal accomplishment subscale (p=0.000). In addition the PTSD symptomatology was present in 3.8% for the academies population and 4.5% for the SAP population. Police officers of the academies were found to have unsatisfactory communication among them (p=0.000), inadequate institutional support (p=0.000) and work issues (p=0.000) associated with burnout.
Conclusions: The results demonstrate the need for the implementation of anthropocentric management of the personnel by the Police leadership, with concurrent culture of teamwork and creating personal relationships between members of the force.
