Advantages of Being a Police Officer
Many of us like a challenge and many of us hate being stuck in the office. At some stage in
our lives, a lot of people have thought about becoming a police officer and why not, there are many
advantages of being a police officer to be enjoyed and it can be a career like no other.
So what are the advantages of being a police officer and why can it be such a satisfying job
for those that take such a career path? Here are some of the benefits and reasons why it can be a
very appealing job.
Police officers get the chance to make a real difference to the lives of many people in their
community. This can be very rewarding for the right kind of person and for most people really beats
the nine to five and an intolerable sense of boredom.
Police officers are challenged on a daily basis and they will never be met with a sense of déjà
vu whilst carrying out their responsibilities. There is a very high price to be placed upon this and
there are very few people who can claim to have a job as varied and interesting as the one carried
out by the many police officers serving in the UK police forces.
Apart from the immense amount of job satisfaction that a member of the police force can
enjoy, there are many other advantages of being a police officer. The salary is exceptionally good
and the level of job security is very high as well. In such difficult economic conditions, there is no
price that can be placed upon this
Since the salary will increase year on year as an officer gains more and more experience, there
is also a strong sense of financial security which can help with family planning and finding a
mortgage. On the subject of mortgages, police officers are entitled to subsidized mortgages as they
count as key workers. This can be of great help in finding a home and especially welcome amongst
younger officers who may be starting families.
There is a chance of career advancement for members of the police and also a chance to
specialize. As well as the incredibly comprehensive training that all police officers are given, there
is also the chance to extend this into areas such as becoming a riot police officer or moving into the
23
traffic division.
The police force is a hugely diverse and interesting organization. It is no longer just a case of
local bobbies on the streets nicking the odd shoplifter; the job now encompasses so many more
walks of life and people from many other backgrounds.
There are many qualities that could make you a good police officer as well as many tests to take.
Nonetheless, if you possess the qualities needed then you will soon be able to enjoy the advantages
of being a police officer. So why not give it a go, it has to beat the boring office job!
