Police employee grievances expressed over a calendar year were collected from police union records and classified according to type.
Abstract
Sixty-four percent of grievance types fell into administration and logistics categories. Grievance classifications such as this provide management with a useful tool with which to identify areas of possible suboptimal performance and remedy them. A very loose relationship appeared to exist between the classification and Herzberg's hygiene factors, which tends to suggest that the broad pattern of police employee grievances is not greatly different from that of other workers.
