Lecture 1 – Introduction

Law enforcement administration begin with the definition of required quantities of


particular personal capabilities. Thereafter, people must be found, recruited, selected, Trained
or retrained, Negotiated with, Counseled, Led, directed, committed, rewarded , Transferred,
Promoted, and finally released or retired. In many of these relations, managers deal with their
associates as individuals (The field takes its name in part from these ty2e off relationship)In
some working organizations. However, employee are represented by unions, manag2ers
bargain with these associations. Such collective are generally describes labor relations.

Current practice shows wide variations in the range of responsibilities assigned to personnel or
industrial relations department. Major areas of personnel department responsibilities include:

1. Organizing-Devising and revising organizational structures of authority and functional


responsibility and facilitating two-way, reciprocal, vertical, and horizontal
communication;
2. Planning-Forecasting personnel requirements in terms of numbers and special
qualifications, scheduling inputs, and anticipating the need of appropriate managerial
policies and program.
3. Staffing, or analy2zing jobs. Developing job descriptions, and specifications ,appraising
and maintaining the inventory of a2vailable capabilities, Recruiting ,selecting, placing,
transferring demoting, promoting, And thus assuring q2ualified manpower When and
where it is needed.
4. Training and develop2ment-assisting team members in their continuing personal group,
From pre-employment, Preparat2ory job training to executive development programs;
5. Collective bargaining –n2egotiating agreements and following through in a day-to-day
administration;
6. Rewarding- Providing fin2ancial and non-financial incentives for individual commitment
and contributions. 2
7. General admini2stration- developing appropriate styles and pattern of leadership
throughout the organization;2

8. Auditing, reviewing and researching –evaluating current performance and procedures in


order to facilitate control and improve future practice.

Individual personnel departments may be assigned varying degrees of responsibility in a


few many or all of these area. In areas assigned to theme ,personnel departments exercise
various levels of authority . Some officers and departmen2s create policies and make major
Decisions and determinations. Some study and recommended policies and create and direct
appropriate programs. The personnel vice president may be a member of the executive
cabinet; he may be expected to assume leadership in and responsibility for all manpower
management policy and programs. Other personnel department are essentially ‘staff’ or
advisory; their activities are r2estricted to recommending, consulting ,and providing such
specified technical and professional services as are requested by operating managers.

The word police comes from the Latin word politia(civil administration), which itself derives
from the Ancient Greek for polis(city). The term police refer to a body of civil authority, which is
task to peace and order, enforce the law, protect lives and properties and insure public safety.
Regarded as initiators of the criminal justice system, societies first line of defense against crim
and criminality. Police are agent or agencies to use force and other forms of coercion and legal
means to effect public and social order. The term is most regularly associated with police
departments of state that are empowered to exercise the police power of the state within the
legal or territorial area of responsibility. Police or law enforcement of community or government
that is responsible for maintaining public order and preventing and detecting crime. The basic of
police mission of preserving order by enforcing rules of conduct or laws was identical in ancient
societies as it is in sophisticated urban environments.

History of Police Force

Although the police are an ever-present force in our lives—providing protection,


enforcing the law, preventing crime and maintaining order—the form they take today took
hundreds of years to perfect. Nearly 400 years ago, the U.S police force as we know it was
merely in its infancy. Policing in Europe, however has been around in some form since 3000
BC.

The word police comes from the ancient Greek word, polis, meaning “city.” The first
policing organization, however, began in about 3000 BC in Egypt. Pharaohs were in charge of
appointing an official to oversee and enforce justice and security for each jurisdiction. This
official was assisted by the area's tax collector. Ancient Greece also had a police force made up
of Scythian slaves who were regulated by magistrates. Ancient Rome continued the practise of
recruiting lower-class citizens (sometimes with criminal pasts) to be part of the police force.
These teams of men were in charge of protecting the city, but prosecuting everyday crimes
(even murder) was often left to be resolved between individuals. Emperor Augustus created

three groups of police to protect Rome from crime and fire in 6 AD. These men were recruited
from the Roman Army.

After the collapse of the Roman Empire in the 5th century, the Byzantine Empire went
back to the original model of law enforcement where most crimes were left to be dealt with by
individuals. In England, however, a new structure of police was being formed. In this model,
groups of 100 men were responsible to enforce good conduct between each other while
protecting the community. These groups were headed by a Shire-Reeve. The role of the Shire-
Reeve eventually developed into what we know today as a Sheriff. By the late 13th Century, the
role of Constable was created. Constables were responsible for overseeing the night watch and
for providing security. At this time, the investigation and prosecution of crimes was still left up to
individuals.

In 1285, the Statute of Winchester made enforcing the law a social responsibility. Any
person who didn't report or try to stop a crime could be prosecuted. In 1361, the Justice of the
Peace Act revoked public responsibility and placed it on the Justices who were appointed by the
monarch. Their responsibilities included police, judicial and administrative duties. Law
enforcement in England rested almost solely on the shoulders of Justices, Constables and the
night watch until the 19th Century.

In 1631, Boston became the first U.S city to establish a night watch. New Amsterdam
(later New York City) soon followed suit in 1647. In the late 18th and 19th Centuries,
“regulators” (vigilantes) became commonplace in many U.S cities. Their role was to enforce
order in areas where there was none.

It wasn't until 1829 that the Metropolitan Police Act was passed and the London
Metropolitan Police Department was formed. The structure of the department was based on the
military. This law enforcement model went on to influence police departments in Great Britain,
the British Commonwealth and the United States.

The Cuerpo de Carabineros de Seguridad Pública was established by the


Captaincy General of the Philippines in 1842 to serve as the police force in the Spanish
East Indies.

In the middle of the 19th Century in the U.S, laws were passed in order to regulate social
behaviour, and penitentiaries, asylums and official police forces were established. New York
City was the first to have an official police department in 1844. The NYPD was based on the
London Metropolitan Police Department. Soon after, departments were established in New
Orleans and Cincinnati (1852), Boston and Philadelphia (1854), Chicago and Milwaukee (1855),
and Baltimore and Newark (1857). Authority over police was left to neighbourhoods and
neighbourhood leaders. Officers didn't wear uniforms and the initial function of the police was to
prevent crimes. Once this proved a very difficult task, one of their main purposes became

investigating crimes that had already been committed. The first detective unit began in New
York City in 1857.

In the mid to late 19th Century, U.S police were still governed mostly by the communities
they were serving. Because of this, corruption and political favoratism were rampant and
created major problems. By the end of the century, with much public influence, the police force
became a civil service with control of the force being placed on the city and/or the state.

Between 1900 and 1920, the prohibition movement, as well as fears of corruption and
Communist influence lead to the need for Federal and State police organizations. The Federal
Bureau of Investigation (FBI) was created in 1908 to investigate antitrust and fraud cases, as
well as crimes committed on government property or by government officials. In 1920, the
Department of Treasury created the first large federal police agency which was in charge of
enforcing prohibition. In order to deal with and prevent corruption and striking among local
police forces, Pennsylvania established the first state police department in 1905. New York
followed in 1917, Michigan, Colorado, and West Virginia in 1919, and Massachusetts in 1920.

Public confidence in the police was waning in the 20s and early 30s due to the effects of
prohibition, corruption and the frightening growth in gangs and crime. August Vollmer began
lobbying to professionalize the police in the early 20th Century. In 1916, he helped create the
first university-level police educational program at the University of California, Berkeley. He also
pushed for prosecution of delinquent youths, started the Uniform Crime Reports program which
kept track of the annual national crime rate, and helped to abolish the physical and/or mental
torture the police had been using in suspect interrogation.

. Edgar Hoover became head of the FBI in 1924 and began actively trying to change the
image of detectives, the Bureau, and the police force as a whole. He made it mandatory for new
agents to have a formal education, nearly eliminated corruption and almost single-handedly
restored public opinion of the police. A new model was adopted which became known as the
“three R's”: random preventive patrols, rapid response to calls for service, and reactive
criminal investigation. This model, as well as Hoover's military-based structure of the police
force became commonplace among all departments.

After World War II, it became standard that police patrolled in cars. This enabled them to
respond to calls for service more rapidly, as well as to provide a stronger police presence in
neighbourhoods. The addition of radios in police cars helped communication between police, as
well as response times.

Today, law enforcement agencies continue to make progress as advancements in


technology, science, research, equipment and training take place. With computer-based
technology, departments are becoming more centralized and information is more easily shared
between them. This ensures quicker capture of suspects, better data collection, more crime
prevention capabilities, and safer communities.

It is impossible to predict the future of law enforcement, but one thing is for sure: all
departments will continually be united in their goal to protect citizens, reduce crime, and serve
their communities.

In 1966, Congress enacted Republic Act 4864 otherwise known as the Police Act of
1966 to provide the foundation for the much needed police reforms in the country.

The Philippine National Police (PNP) originated from the Philippine Constabulary or the
PC, which was inaugurated on August 8, 1901, establishing it as an insular police force under
the American regime. On August 8, 1975, Presidential Decree no. 765 was issued, establishing
the Philippine Constabulary Integrated National Police or the PC/INP as the country’s national
police force. These fragmented and diverse local police units were integrated into a national
police force with the Philippine Constabulary as its nucleus.

After the People’s Revolution in 1986, a new Constitution was promulgated providing for
a police force, which is “national in scope and civilian in character.” Consequently, Republic Act
No. 6975 entitled, “An Act Establishing the Philippine National Police under a Reorganized
Department of the Interior and Local government (DILG),” was signed into law on December 13,
1990, which took effect on January 1, 1991. Subsequently, the PNP was operational on January
29, 1991, whose members were formerly the PC and the INP and the absorption of the selected
members from the major service units of the Armed Forces of the Philippines such as the
Philippine Air Force Security Command, the Philippine Coast Guard, Philippine Navy, and the
Philippine Army.

Thus, to further strengthen the PNP into a highly efficient and competent police force,
Republic Act No. 8551 entitled “PNP Reform and the Reorganization Act of 1998” was enacted
on February 17, 1998, amending certain provisions of Republic Act No. 6975.

Fundamental Theories of Police Service

The Home Rule Theory

Law enforcers or police men are regarded as servants of the community, who rely fro the
efficiency of their functions the express needs of the people. In this concept, police men are civil
servants whose key duty is the preservation of public peace and security. This is practice in
United States and in England where the governmental structure follows a decentralized pattern.

The Continental Theory

In this concept, policemen are regarded as state of servants of higher authorities. This
theory prevails European countries where the governmental organization follows centralized
pattern, e.g. Spain, Italy and France. The people have no share or little participation with the
duties nor connection with the police organization.

LAW ENFORECEMENT ADMINISTRATION

Two prevailing concepts which pertain to the efficiency of police service:

The Old Concept

Police service is give the impression of being merely suppressive machinery. This
philosophy advocates that the yardstick of police competence is the increasing number of
arrest, throwing offenders in the detention facilities rather than to prevent them from committing
crimes.

The Modern Concept

This thought of police service regards police as first line of defense of criminal justice
system, an organ of crime prevention. Under this concept, police efficiency is measured by
decreasing number of crimes. It further broadens police activities to cater social services and
has for its mission the welfare of the individual as well as the community in general.

Tested Doctrines in Police Principles needed in the organizational structuring of a group of


people assigned to perform a task.

 Related task in process, purpose, method or clientele should be group together;


whenever practicable every function of police force shall be assigned to each
respective unit. ( According to function, time frame, place of work and level of
authority).
 Lines of authority and chain of command should be clearly define and
established.
 The span of control of a supervisor or units shall not be more than what he can
effectively coordinate.
 A group of personnel must have only one supervisor.
 Proper flow of communication.
 Staff and line function must be define.
 Everyone in the organization must knows his job and to whom he reports.
 The responsibility for a function shall carry with it commensurate authority,
making the person to whom it is vested accountable therefore.

Organization

Types of Organization Structure: An organizational structure is a mechanical means of


depicting by an arrangement of symbols; the relationship which exists between individuals,
group and functions within the organization. Lines of authority and responsibility and functional
relationships between groups and individuals are clearly defined to ensure compliance and
accountability.

Functional organization

INSTRUCTOR: ARNEL A. PADERES 9|Page16

PASSI CITY COLLEGE

School of Criminal Justice

LAW ENFORECEMENT ADMINISTRATION

In this type of organization, the performance of certain duties, at all levels is controlled
and directed by a separate organizational authority. Each work unit or function is place under
the supervision of 4 to 8 specialist, one of each units major or special activities. The functional
organization divides authority and responsibility between several specialists. The responsibility
of each “functional manager” is restricted to the particular activity over which he has control,
regardless of who perform the function.

Line Organization

This is the simplest form of organization. All operation and administrative functions are
included in the scalar chain of authority. The straight line organization often called individual,
departmental or military type of ornanization is the oldest type but seldom encountered in its
true form except in any but the smallest establishments. The channels of authority and
responsibility extend in a direct line from top to bottom within he structure. Authority is absolute
and definite.

Line and Staff Police Organization

In the scalar chain of authority, the line is the backbone of organization. The line is
supplemented by the staff, which gives advice and assistance to the line in carrying out its
objectives. Both line and staff personnel are responsible jointly for the performance. Line officer
take direct action while staff personnel furnish technical information, advice the expertise with
out having direct authority over line personnel.

Police Territorial Units

 Post – a fixed point or location to which an officer is assigned for duty, such as
designated desk or officer/ crosswalk or an intersection for traffic duty/ or spot or location
for general duty.
 Route –A length of street or streets, designated for patrol purposes. Also referred to line
beat.
 Beat –an area assigned for patrol purposes, whether foot or motorized.
 Sector – an area containing two or more beat, routes or post.
 District –a geographical subdivision of city for patrol purposes, usually for its own station.

Functional units

 Bureau –largest organic unit within a large department.


 Division –the primary subdivision of a bureau.
 Section –functional units within the a particular division. This is necessary for
specialization.

Police decentralization and centralized police force

Centralization vs Decentralization
In any organization, there is a way of making hierarchy in order to ensure smooth organizing of
work to drive the business.

This has been possible because everyone knows what role they are going to play. What is
being required out from them in order to layout a proper business plan for the organization?

As it is rightly said that hierarchy is laid down in an organization in order to ensure smooth
organizing of work. These hierarchies are laid in terms of planning power and the decision
making process.

BUT do you know that in any organization there are two structures of making hierarchy
Centralization and Decentralization?
One cannot sideline the importance of Centralization and Decentralization as a hierarchical
structure, as they are very crucial to any organization

Both Centralization and Decentralization are two different structures for distributing
authority in any firm. It does still exists and companies have aligned different structures for
Centralization and Decentralization.
Centralization in an organization involves planning and decision-making power is given
completely in the hands of senior management. It implies that all power and authority is
concentrated at the highest level.

Decentralization in an organization involves the delegation of power by middle management or


lower management.

Unlike Centralization, Decentralization implies that all power, authority are distributed
amongst middle and lower management.
Therefore, we should keep in mind that both Centralization and Decentralization have an
important set of structures. They are very crucial in terms of the company’s authority
distribution.

In this guide, we are covering all the essential details for you to understand the difference
between Centralization and Decentralization, so as you know about these two roles.

What is Centralization?
Centralization in an organization implies holding of authority through the senior management.

We can see that the authority is consistent and a systematic hierarchical pattern is observed in
Centralization

Centralization in any organization has the flow of communication designed upright, so as


the middle and lower management has to strictly follow the directions of the senior
management.
Since authority, power is influenced by senior management. The decision-making process is
time-consuming and slower.

Following are some points in Centralization to be known;

1. Vertically allied movement of communication


2. Decision-making progression is slower
3. The power lies with Senior management
4. Leadership has apt coordination

5. Implementation in small-sized organizations.


The primary objective of Centralization structure in any business is to involve hierarchical
structure whenever there is inadequate control over the organization

Therefore, it is equally important to also know, that Centralization is quite important for any
organization who are looking to ensure their vision, the mission is fulfilled.

Thus, it is required to understand that Centralization plays a very important role in any
organization and proper information should be known about it.

What is Decentralization?
Decentralization in an organization involves spreading power, accountability, and responsibility
to various management levels.

Decentralization in any organization has the flow of communication designed freely, so


as the middle and lower management has full freedom to overlook the strategies for the
organization.
Since the authority and power lie in the hands of middle and lower management. The decision-
making process is faster and not so complex.

Following are some points in Decentralization to be known:

1. The flow of communication is free and open


2. Faster decision making and execution
3. Lower management has the authority to work.
4. There is significant control over the organization.
5. Implementation in large-sized organizations
The primary objective of the Decentralization structure in any business is to reduce the amount
of burden and responsibility equally among lower and middle management.

Therefore, it is equally important to also know, that Decentralization is quite important for any
organization that is looking to systematically distribute the authority among the hierarchy.

Thus, it is required to understand that Decentralization plays a very important role in any
organization and adequate information should be identified about it.

Main Differences Between Centralization and Decentralization


Although both Centralization and Decentralization are important for an organization. However,
Centralization and Decentralization have a lot of differences with respect to decision making,
power and authority delegation.

is quite open and free in Decentralization.
2. Decision-making process is faster in Decentralization whereas it is slower in

3. Centralization is more suitable for small-sized firms whereas Decentralization is suited
more for large-sized firms.

TYPES OF POLICE-COMMUNITY RELATIONS

1. Public Information Program


- Designed to bridge the communication gapbetween the police and the public.

Forms of Media used:


a. PersonalMedia
- Consists of face-to-face communication , suchas meetings, rallies, delivering speeches
and house-to-house visitation.
b. Mass Media
- Includes printed matter and audio-visualcommunications.

2. Public Relations Program


- Designed to maintain harmony and mutualsupport between the police and the
community.
- Designed to “sell” the police to the public.

3. Civic Action Program


- Designed to maintain and encourage communitydevelopment.

4. Psychological Program
- Designed to condition both friendly andhostile public, ensuring the facilitation of the
attainment of policeobjectives.

Patrol
The word patrol is derived from the French word patrouiler, which means roughly, “to
travel on foot”. In most modern police agencies and organizations foot patrol has been either
replaced altogether or significantly supplanted through other patrol methods. Patrol is the only
form of police service, which directly attempts to eliminate desire / opportunity of an individual to
commit misconduct. Patrol is the backbone of the police department since this is the only
division within the structure of police organization that may not be eliminated. Patrol is the only
division that perform without fail round the clock or twenty four hours duty. Patrol may be amply
define as repeated of guarding, performed to cover, secure and protect a particular area.
