Police Work On Domestic Violence: Impacts On The Police Officers O trabalho policial na violência doméstica: impactos nos polícias
Conteúdo do artigo principal
Resumo
Em Portugal, a violência doméstica (VD) é, atualmente, dos principais tipos de criminalidade registada pelas forças policiais, não sendo um fenómeno recente. De acordo com o Relatório Anual de Segurança Interna 2021, registou-se um total de 26.520 participações de VD em 2021. Todos os serviços e profissionais de proteção a vítimas deste tipo de crime (e doutros), nos quais se inserem os polícias, são caracterizados pela exposição sistemática a situações traumáticas. A violência manifesta ou latente que habitualmente enfrentam pode resultar em problemas ao nível da saúde física e psicológica dos polícias, tornando-os potenciais vítimas secundárias. Estas consequências foram estudadas numa pesquisa qualitativa de caráter exploratório. Apresenta-se os resultados da análise de conteúdo de 14 entrevistas semiestruturadas, conduzidas de forma semidiretiva junto de polícias da Polícia de Segurança Pública portuguesa que sistematicamente trabalham com vítimas de VD.Palavras-chave: violência doméstica; polícias; vitimização secundária; situações traumáticas.
