TTPS QUARTERLY No.1 (1)

n the near future each of the nine Divisions of the
Trinidad and Tobago Police Service will be mandated to
select a station of the month for each month of the year.
From this pool of monthly selected stations, a station of
the year will be selected. This initiative when
implemented will generate a healthy competitive
environment within the divisions as each station will
have the opportunity to be selected.

Public Information Officer
The Inspectors and Sergeants in charge of each station
will be motivated to raise the level of their management
skills and in so doing encourage and drive their
subordinates to perform at optimum level. As the
criteria entails the examination of all aspects of
performance within each police station, this will
generate a sense of camaraderie as the officers will be
expected to work together to achieve the goal of
working in the most efficient Police Station. The bigger
picture of this initiative is the overall improvement in
the performance of the Trinidad and Tobago Police
Service and the officers performing their duties with
Professionalism Respect Integrity Dignity and
Excellence in other words with PRIDE!.
The benefit of the station of the month initiative within
a district will lead to the effective and efficient policing
of the district through the maintenance of law and
order. The officers within the station district must bring
a sense of security and stability to the citizenry within
that community by the methods used to accomplish the
tasks at hand. The Station of the Month initiative is
designed to determine the police station that most
effectively serves the internal and external
customers in the district.
