Abstract
The aim of this study is to measure employees’ perceptions of UAE police’s reputation. Even though these perceptions are formed in the public domain, this study focused on the public sector employees’ evaluation of the Commission’s reputation and credibility. This is solely because they work in it and will be directly affected by negative perceptions, as evident in most alternative media and blogs. Like many other organizations, employees and other internal stakeholders know the organization better than the outsiders, so measuring their perceptions is essential. This study attempts to reflect how UAE police, through its charismatic leadership communication and organizational credibility, earns the trust and confidence of its employees in times of crisis, which is further reflected in its reputation. The present study chooses the situational crisis communication theory to develop its theoretical framework. Originating in attribution theory, the SCCT has been widely used in crisis communication research to test the link between crisis situation and crisis response strategies. The study has employed the SEM-PLS is statistical technique for the analysis of the data. The findings of the study have provided support to the hypothesized results.
