Damning Report Finds More Victorian Police Officers Are Ready to Quit
The Australian Federal System That Almost Failed Brave Police Officers 60 Minutes Australia 6 DEC 2023 A new survey has found a rising number of Victoria Police officers are suffering extreme fatigue and are ready to quit the job. The survey of over 1,000 officers revealed three out of four are experiencing extreme fatigue and burnout with more than one in four ready to leave the force. Overall job satisfaction is at an all-time low of just 33 per cent. It follows recent wage and condition disputes across the state sector as officers prepare to launch industrial action. Victorias' Police Association is demanding a four per cent pay rise and better work-life balance. MORE; Australian Federal System That Almost Failed The protection of undercover police officers should be a priority, but when the Australian Federal Police conducted a high-level inquiry into its own undercover program, it found major failings that risked compromising operations and lives. Synopsis - Breaking Cover (2023) Being a police officer can often be dangerous, but within the Australian Federal Police there’s a special division of cops whose role is so constantly treacherous that every day is a matter of life and death. They’re undercover operatives who work at the very front line of crime-fighting in Australia and internationally. The protection of these officers should be a priority, but remarkably, when the AFP conducted a high-level inquiry into its own undercover program, it found major failings that risked compromising operations and lives. In a major investigation by 60 MINUTES, The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age, Nick McKenzie reports that police insiders are now so worried about the safety of their brave colleagues they’re breaking cover in the hope of achieving long-term accountability and reform. |
