92% of police officers complain of fatigue, says study
The reasons for police officers’ fatigue include irregular working hours, lack of proper sleep and inadequate or untimely food
91.79%
What is it? The percentage of police officers in India that faces mild to severe fatigue due to occupational hazards, according to a study.
Why is it important? This leads to poor concentration and judgement, reduced vigilance, eye-hand coordination and visual perception, impaired recollection of events and slow reaction time. The alarming percentage suggests that this could be one of the main but often-ignored reasons for the inefficient law enforcement system in the country. India ranked 59 among 102 countries on the World Justice Project Rule of Law Index 2015. In terms of order and security (includes threats such as conventional crime, political violence and violence used as a means to redress personal grievances), it ranks 90 in the list.
Tell me more: The reasons for a majority of the police officers experiencing fatigue include irregular working hours, lack of proper sleep, inadequate or untimely food, inability to meet family members even after work hours, alcohol use, smoking and the non-availability of basic facilities (even bathing), according to the study sponsored by the Bureau of Police Research and Development.
