| Sumario: | This study examines the impact of COVID-19 pandemic-induced stress on job attitudes of police officers in Haryana state, India. It focuses on stressors related to COVID-19, such as fear of contracting the virus or infecting family members, and perceptions of police-community relations during enforcement of mask-wearing and social distancing. Data from a survey of 1,323 officers in civil and police lines roles were analyzed. They indicate that officers with more experience and those in police lines roles reported fewer negative job attitudes. COVID-19 stressors like fear of family members getting infected, personal health concerns, and job insecurity due to COVID-19 illness predicted negative job attitudes. However, positive perceptions of police–citizen cooperation in enforcing COVID-19 laws were associated with better job attitudes. |
