Abstract

As the Auxiliary Police system is completely abolished in 2023, riot police squads composed of police officers are replacing the role of existing auxiliary Police. However, the number of riot police force is only 30% of the existing auxiliary police force. There is a need to manage rallies and protests that are not decreasing due to insufficient police force, and to prevent riot police officers from turning over their duties, who must work at risk of injury, it is necessary to efficiently measure and manage their burnout level on a regular basis. Accordingly, this study was conducted to efficiently measure the level of burnout of riot police officers and verify the validity of this burnout scale in order to manage it on a regular basis. To determine whether the MBI scale, a representative burnout scale, is an appropriate scale for riot police officers, the validity was verified through descriptive statistical analysis, reliability analysis, exploratory factor analysis, and confirmatory factor analysis. As a result of this study, it was confirmed that the burnout scale of riot police officers was divided into three factors. A revised MBI scale consisting of 17 questions was presented, excluding 5 of the 22 questions of the original MBI scale. This study is significant in that it can be used as basic data for a program that increases the need and understanding of the burnout of riot police officers and manages it.
