Abstract(s)
Não há sociedade moderna que se mantenha sã, sem a ordem social necessária para
que os seus cidadãos consigam prosseguir com as suas aspirações de vida. Para pôr
cobro a situações de desordem concertada e grave, a Polícia de Segurança Pública
(PSP) tem os polícias do Corpo de Intervenção (CI), especializados para atuar em
situações de grande tensão, conflito e onde as ameaças à integridade física ou à vida
estão bem patentes. Importa perceber que estas situações, às quais acorrem, acarretam
níveis de stress elevados, podendo levar a que estes polícias se sintam reféns de um
problema psicológico. Pelo bem-estar dos homens e para que a instituição não perca
os ativos humanos que têm um know how considerável, é necessário perceber os
origens dos impactos destes profissionais, bem como as consequências na sua saúde.
Assim, realizaram-se 20 entrevistas, a polícias que estão no serviço operacional do CI,
as quais, depois de transcritas, constituíram o corpus que foi sujeito a análise de
conteúdo. Os resultados mostram que o maior enfoque dos impactos tem origem no
contexto do trabalho mas também no conteúdo do trabalho. Percebemos, ainda, que
as estratégias de defesa passam muito pela abstração das situações ou pelo recurso a
estratégias grupais, evidenciando o espírito de camaradagem desta Subunidade
Operacional. Por outro lado, percebemos que os operacionais do CI sentem haver um
estigma quanto à saúde mental, o que resulta em alguma relutância em procurar ajuda
dentro da organização. É discutida a criação de mecanismos para minimizar este
estigma, e tornar a ajuda especializada mais próxima dos polícias.
No modern society can be healthy without the necessary social order for its citizens to be able to pursue their life aspirations. To put an end to situations of concerted and serious disorder that are installed, the Public Security Police (PSP) has the men of the Riot Police Unit, specialized to act in situations of great tension, conflict and where threats to physical integrity or life are clearly evident. However, it is important to realize that these situations, to which they are accustomed, bring high levels of stress, which can lead these police officers to feel hostages of a psychological problem. For the well being of the men and so that the institution does not lose human assets that have an enviable know how, it is necessary to understand the origins of the impacts of these professionals. Thus, 20 interviews were conducted, of Officers/Main Officers who are in the operational service of the IC. After the interviews had been conducted, they were transcribed, constituting the corpus that was subject to content analysis by means of a mixed procedure. From the content analysis we noticed that the biggest focus of the impacts is on questions about the work and content context. We also noticed that the defense strategies go through the abstraction of situations or group strategies, showing the spirit of camaraderie in this Operational Subunit. On the other hand, we noticed that the IC operatives feel there is a stigma about mental health, showing some reluctance to seek help within the institution. It is important to create mechanisms to dispel this stigma, and make specialized help closer to the Officers.
