Details

On 26 January 2017 a small error was spotted in the police workforce statistical bulletin. The flow chart explaining the police disciplinary system suggested that it was possible for a special case hearing to result in an outcome of management advice, a written warning, or dismissal with notice. These are not, in fact, possible outcomes following special case hearings. The flow chart was revised accordingly.

Police workforce open data tables.

Statistics cover police officers, police staff, police community support officers, designated officers and special constables.
