The loss of Police shifts may be a major issue for Victoria Police, but it is devastating for the public.

The Austrian Newspaper reports on the 31st of December 2024 on the Victoria Police Annual Report, which indicates that the loss of operational Police shifts has grown to 200,000 from 2024, a 12% spike.

As scary as this headline number is, the reality is that global statistics of this nature enable the actual causes to be hidden.

The impact of attending Traumatic events is well-overplayed; police for generations have all been faced with traumatic experiences, none more horrendous today than Police have faced in the past.

We defy anybody to find a serving or former police member who does not experience flashbacks to a trauma they have been exposed to. These events are with the Police for a lifetime, so managing them is the key.

Police are ordinary people doing an extraordinary job...
