This book offers a roadmap for police services to tackle workplace incivility and foster inclusivity. Recent years have seen policing scrutinized due to police-involved shootings and in-custody deaths, where systemic racism, inadequate responses to mental illness, and excessive force have raised concerns among civil rights groups. These incidents have prompted public questioning of police legitimacy. The text features real stories from police officers and case studies from various police organizations, revealing significant issues of incivility, including gender and ethnic harassment and discrimination within the workplace. The repercussions of workplace incivility are profound, as victims often reduce their work effort, quality, and commitment, leading to negative interactions with colleagues and the public. Such behavior can further erode public perceptions of police legitimacy. The book presents a unique model for police organizations to enhance inclusivity, making it a valuable resource for police practitioners, reform advisors, researchers, and graduate-level courses on special topics.
