Law enforcement in Florida is marked with significant challenges, especially in the areas of retention and recruitment. These challenges have extensive implications for both the effectiveness of the police and the safety of the public.
An alarming trend facing law enforcement agencies throughout Florida, is the ability to retain and recruiting officers. According to a recent survey, there is an alarming number of officers that are planning on leaving their agency. Either from retirement, changing careers, or changing agencies.
This was due to being dissatisfied with the aspects of the law enforcement job itself, political pressures, poor leadership, and negative media depiction.
The difficulty with recruitment and exodus of experienced officers, has led to significant staffing shortages. Which has resulted in an increase in response times and an heightened safety concern.
The role of private security guards is expanding here in Florida when it comes to public safety. Private security has become essential in businesses and communities. When hiring a security service, it is crucial to work with a company with significant training, experience, and dedication to the industry.
