Area of Science:

  • Occupational Health
  • Psychology
  • Criminology

Background:

  • Police personnel face unique occupational stressors leading to physical and psychological injuries.
  • Return-to-work (RTW) is critical post-injury, but practices within police services are under-researched.
  • Understanding RTW experiences is vital for supporting officer well-being and operational readiness.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine current return-to-work (RTW) practices in police services.
  • To explore the experiences of RTW personnel and workers with injuries/illnesses.
  • To identify barriers and facilitators in the RTW process for police members.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative research methods were employed.
  • Purposive sampling recruited sworn and civilian members from Ontario police services.
  • Semi-structured interviews were conducted, transcribed, and analyzed for thematic content.

Main Results:

  • Five overarching themes emerged concerning police organizational culture and RTW processes.
  • Themes included injury complexity, hierarchical structures, stoicism, stigma, accommodation, communication, and trust.
  • Challenges in meaningful accommodation, clear communication, and trust-building were identified.

Conclusions:

  • Police RTW practices require improvement in flexibility, clarity, confidentiality, and stigma reduction.
  • Further research is needed, particularly on managing psychological injuries within police services.
  • Optimizing RTW processes can enhance support for injured officers and improve organizational functioning.
