Police staff subject of a complaint
A member of police staff against whom an allegation is made can be sure that the IPCC will act quickly, impartially and fairly.
The IPCC continues to work with the police to shift the police complaints system to a ‘learning’ culture.
Both the IPCC and the police force have a duty to keep the police staff member who is subject to a complaint or allegation of misconduct informed at appropriate points in the investigation of progress.
The following leaflet for police staff has been developed in partnership with UNISON.

Local Resolution
The Local Resolution process is a way of resolving complaints and is designed to provide an opportunity to respond quickly to complaints at a local level.
Local Resolution can provide an opportunity for a police staff member to explain why they took particular action. The Statutory Guidance details more about this process.
