ABOUT THE DORSET POLICE FEDERATION Dorset Police Federation, as part of the Police Federation of England and Wales, is the representative body of police officers below the rank of Superintendent. Established by the Police Act of 1919, the Police Federation was introduced to provide officers with a platform to bring their views on welfare and efficiency to the notice of the government and police authorities.
Similar to the function of a Trade Union the Police Federation of England and Wales negotiates with the official side on all matters concerning members pay, allowances, hours of duty, annual leave, pensions and other conditions of service.
But unlike a trade union, the Federation:
- is controlled entirely by serving police officers.
- is completely independent, with no political affiliations or associations with outside bodies.
- has no powers to call a strike or any other form of industrial action.
