Policja

The Polish Police is a centralized, armed, and uniformed force dedicated to ensuring the safety and security of citizens across Poland. With nearly 100,000 police officers and approximately 25,000 civilian employees, the organization operates under the leadership of the Commander-in-Chief of Police. This structure encompasses the Warsaw Metropolitan Police and 16 provincial commands overseeing local law enforcement.

The Polish Police engages in various services, including criminal investigations, community prevention, and logistics support, ensuring efficient operational capabilities. Officers are extensively trained in police schools to prepare them for their duties, which encompass identity checks, detentions, searches, and the use of direct force when necessary. Specialized units, such as counter-terrorist squads and the Central Bureau of Investigation, focus on dismantling organized crime and enhancing public safety.

With a commitment to professional ethics and public trust, the Polish Police continually strives to protect the legal order and uphold the security of the state and its citizens.
