Watch this video to see a sergeant oral board answer demonstration for this question: “What do you see as the sergeant's role in advancing officer wellness and safety?”
Officer wellness and safety is one of the six pillars from the President’s Task Force on 21st Century Policing Final Report. Fortunately, the concept of officer wellness and safety has been given increased attention over the past decade and improvements have been made in many police agencies.
As you seek to promote to the rank of sergeant it is important that you see officer wellness and safety the same way your chief does. In many cases, chiefs do not see wellness and safety as purely the command staff’s job. Rather, they tend to believe that everyone has a role in officer wellness and safety. For that reason, I suggest that you be prepared for an oral board question on the topic.
