Have your say on pay and morale

IT’S time for Essex Police officers to have their say on pay and morale.

And Essex Police Federation Chairman Steve Taylor is calling on members to make sure their voice is heard by filling in the PFEW survey.

“When we try and achieve change then we need data from members to support it,” he said.

“Taking the time to complete surveys like this one gives people like me the evidence, the facts that we need to take to the organisation, so we can demonstrate this is what officers are thinking.

“It takes away the ability for them to say, ‘we think it’s just your view or opinion.’

Steve added that the PFEW survey is unique in giving decision makers an idea of the national police psyche.

“It’s really important and police bodies including the College of Policing are referencing the results of the survey – the more of us that take the time to complete it the better.”
