Abstract(s)
A Polícia de Segurança Pública, instituição centenária, alberga nos seus quadros,
largos milhares de profissionais, provenientes de todo o território nacional. Na PSP, cumpre se uma missão de defesa da legalidade, da segurança interna e dos direitos dos cidadãos.
Os polícias iniciam a sua carreira jurando dar a vida, se necessário for, para que a
missão seja executada com sucesso. E este início de profissão coincide, na esmagadora
maioria dos casos, com um afastamento da família e mudança de residência; com a colocação
na capital e suas imediações, onde as missões policiais são de grande complexidade e onde
os índices de criminalidade são os mais elevados do país. Vicissitudes da vida, e em especial
a progressão na carreira para quem por ela ambiciona, obrigam a mobilidade constante.
Os Serviços Sociais, ao longo das seis décadas de existência, criaram um vasto leque
de opções de apoio social, que procura atenuar as consequências do risco profissional, do
desgaste físico, psicológico e emocional dos efetivos policiais, bem como melhorar a
condição social e económica decorrente da mobilidade e do afastamento familiar. Tanto no
ativo como na aposentação.
Foi nestes últimos que nos concentramos. A condição policial acima sumariamente
enunciada, desenvolve laços de pertença à instituição e de camaradagem entre profissionais,
só comparáveis nas organizações castrenses, de onde a PSP herda as suas raízes. Assim, o
dever de solidariedade estende-se por toda a vida.
The Public Security Police (PSP) is a century-old institution wich joins thousands of professionals from all over the national territory. PSP mission is to defend legality, internal security and assure that citizens' rights are fulfilled. Young police officers begin their career swearing to give their lives, if necessary, so that the mission is carried out successfully. However the start of activity often means, in the overwhelming majority of cases, displacement from residence and distance from family to accomplish mission in the capital and its surroundings, where police work is of great complexity and where crime rates are the highest in the country. These specific circunstances and career progression for those who aspire to it, require constant mobility. To provide support to all PSP professionals the institution created the Social Services. With more than six decades of existence, it provides a wide range of social support options, which seeks to mitigate the consequences of professional risk, physical, psychological and emotional strain of police officers, as well as to improve the social and economic condition arising from mobility and family leave, both in active and retirement. This last issue concernning senior social support is the focus of this final individual assignment. The presented police condition develops bonds of belonging to the institution and camaraderie between professionals, only comparable to the military institutions, from where the PSP has inherited it’s roots. Thus, the duty of solidarity lasts throughout life.
