Abstract(s)
A prevenção da criminalidade e a necessidade de responder às exigências da
sociedade tem motivado mudanças nas organizações policiais, levando à adoção
de novos modelos de policiamento, nomeadamente o de proximidade, cujas
características implicam empowerment. O empowerment dos agentes de
proximidade reflete o conjunto de ações que lhes são delegadas e lhes conferem
poder para tomar decisões no âmbito do seu trabalho, com autonomia e
responsabilidade.
Neste relatório é analisado o empowerment que os agentes de proximidade
detêm e que efetivamente exercem, através da aplicação de 57 questionários aos
próprios e aos supervisores locais do Comando Distrital de Setúbal. Os resultados
obtidos apontam para a existência de elevados níveis de empowerment dos
agentes de proximidade neste Comando, realizando quase diariamente a maioria
das tarefas para as quais lhes é atribuído poder. Foram encontradas evidências
da não execução de determinadas tarefas de acordo com a pertença às EPAV ou
EPES. Pontualmente, identificaram-se falta de condições para a existência de
empowerment, concretamente ao nível do acesso à informação, apoio e recursos.

The empowerment of police community officers reflects the set of actions that are delegated to them and give them power to make decisions within their work, with autonomy and responsibility. On this report is analyzed the empowerment that police community officers own and effectively carry, through the application of 57 questionnaires to the officers, and local supervisors of Comando Distrital Setúbal. The results point to the existence of high levels of empowerment of police community officers, carrying out almost daily the majority of the tasks for which they are empowered. It was found evidence of not performing tasks in accordance with belonging to EPAV or EPES. Punctually, there were identified lack of conditions for the existence of empowerment, particularly in terms of information, support and resources. Keywords: empowerment,
