OurMission: To ensure a safe,secure and peaceful Bermuda for all...because we care. VISION STATEMENT
The Bermuda Police Service, focusing on its core functions is operating at full strength and is supported by an effective and efficient Human Resources Department and civil- ianisation process. Facilities are specifically built or adapted to meet the unique demands of modern policing. Proven technological and support equipment as well as the required T financial resources are utilised. Its highly trained and respected Bermudian commissioner is heading an effective, apolitical manage- ment team that is practising shared leadership of a disciplined Service. Consistent application of poli- cies reflects its values, mission and vision. Effective training and development programmes continu- ously enhance job performance and meet individual and organisational needs.
The communication process is open, honest and respectful. It flows effectively, both internally and externally. It is working in partnership with the community and other agencies to provide the neces- sary education and information that enhances these relationships. There is a safe, practical and healthy work environment for all. An effective welfare policy and enforced code of conduct promote openness, trust and unity.
Its members have access to legal representation and funding when a complaint has been lodged. Through unified representation, all members are covered by an equitable medical policy and are pro- vided with similar benefits.
