The Determinants of Police-Specific Contract Clauses

Abstract

dc:description

This study investigates the environmental antecedents of twenty-eight police-specific contract clauses encompassing bargaining issues such as mandated equipment, manning, premium pay provisions, officer bill of rights, and residency rules. These specific contract clauses are viewed as central to police officers' feeling of physical and psychological security and are also seen as incursions into managerial prerogatives. The focus of this research centers on three types of environmental variables: legal, socio-economic, and internal bargaining, as independent variables.
