A fronteira entre a produtividade e a qualidade de vida do servidor: uma análise da segurança pública goiana

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between productivity and the quality of life of police officers in the public security sector of Goiás, Brazil. Using an interdisciplinary approach, the research explores the impact of human rights, public management, and technology on this relationship. The study employs a mixed-methods methodology, incorporating document analysis, semi-structured interviews, and focus groups to investigate specific challenges faced by police officers, such as inadequate material infrastructure, moral harassment, and physical risks associated with their duties. The findings highlight a significant correlation between officers' perceived quality of life and their productivity. Officers reporting better working conditions and lower instances of moral harassment tend to exhibit higher productivity levels. The study suggests that public policies aimed at promoting the mental and physical health of police officers are crucial for enhancing public security effectiveness. Furthermore, the analysis underscores the need for more efficient resource management and robust institutional support to address the identified challenges. Improvements in working conditions, including the provision of adequate equipment and regular training, are recommended as essential measures to foster a more effective and humane public security environment in Goiás.
