Question Description

Describe rights of police officers and the development of police unions.
Many law enforcement agencies are now unionized, however, in the south; many are still “at will” employees. Unions have changed law enforcement in many different ways. They offer countless protections for employees and provide employees with labor agreements; however, some have criticized the development of unions for law enforcement.

Please respond to all of the following prompts :

  • Discuss some of the challenges law enforcement agencies that are not unionized, may face.
  • How do you feel about police departments having union protection versus not having union protection?
