Introduction

Individual wellbeing is personal and therefore unique. It is not something that is given it is developed by each individual for themselves, however external influences can support or hinder the process of achieving a positive state of total wellbeing.

Supporting the wellbeing of our officers and staff is fundamental in achieving an engaged workforce and successful devlivery of policing in Scotland.

There is a range of services available to officers, staff and in some cases household family members providing support from dedicated experts when you need it.

The development of this mobile site is to specifically provide officers and staff with information on what support is available to them.

 

Psychological

Good psychological wellbeing stems from positive emotions, feelings of happiness and a sense of meaning and purpose. Having good psychological wellbeing does not mean there is an absence, on occasion, of difficult situations or feelings. It will however enable you to cope with challenging situations in a more resilient way.
