Opportunities for Improvement in Organisation of Police Operations

Abstract

Purpose:The purpose of this paper is to define opportunities for improvement in organisation of Police operations in Poland, both within the force and extra institutionally. Design/Methodology/Approach: The studies whose findings are presented in this paper are the consequence of the authors' own qualitative studies as well as surveys conducted among theoreticians and practitioners engaged in public security, management and security management. Findings: The findings prove that the determinants in rationalisation of organisation of Police operations include internal reserves of the Police, the force's cooperation with other institutions, use of modern technologies and application of highly objective tools to assessing the effectiveness of operations. They have various effects on improving organisation of Police operations, but only when applied in concert.
