THE RELATIONSHIP OF EMPLOYEES TOWARDS THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE POLICE-INTELLIGENCE MODEL IN THE REPUBLIC OF SERBIA

The aim of this research is to scientifically describe the relationship of employees towards the implementation of the police-intelligence model using scientific research methods. The police-intelligence model, as an important part of the public security management system working, has been recently implemented in the Serbian security system. As such, it demands certain adjustments and changes within the system in order to adopt the system to the new police-intelligence model. Every organizational change, such as the establishment of a new working method like the police-intelligence model, creates resistance among employees. The main reason for this is the established and traditional working method of employees resisting change, despite the fact that the implementation of such a proactive model, as is police-intelligence, significantly contributes to the increased effectiveness and performance of police work, which positively reflects on the state of public safety in the Republic of Serbia. The research was conducted as theoretical-empirical, combining both theoretical and empirical research methods. However, the results of empirical research indicated deficiencies reflected in insufficient support from strategic and regional level leaders, a reduction in resistance among employees due to the lack of education of all police officers, and raising awareness of the position and the role of all employees in the implementation of the police-intelligence model.
