dc.description.abstractThis thesis explored the human rights situation of the police in Bangladesh through the investigation of their work-life experience with respect to working conditions, salaries and other organizational factors. In addition to addressing the problem mentioned above, this study also investigated the possible consequences of the poor working environment to and outside the organization. This study employed a qualitative research method in which fifteen police officers from different units were purposively selected and interviewed. Their descriptions were examined and analyzed to produce themes relating to their personal feelings. The themes revealed that the economic and social rights of the police members were subject to wide range of violations due to poor working conditions, low wage, and other internal and external organizational and social factors. Analysis of data also disclosed that all these factors can bring negative impacts on individual and social life from human rights perspective. Recommendations were made so that human rights of both the police and the public could be ensured through the improvement of working conditions, enhancement of salaries and providing human rights training and other logistics and social supports. The study also called for striking a balance between the rights and responsibility of the police officers. It was concluded that the human rights of the police is also important to ensure the human rights of millions of citizens. And the realization of citizen’s rights is possible only when police ensure social order through effective policing. this study also investigated the possible consequences of the poor working environment to and outside the organization.
