Many public safety sectors want their PSP to behave in specific ways while “in uniform.” These ways can include being calm, courageous, unemotional, in control. When “on the job,” PSP also have to be aware of any possible threat to their safety and wellbeing. At the end of each shift, PSP have to transition out of these roles and rejoin their families.

Families may need to develop strategies to manage this time, to include recovery time to reduce conflict. Home to work transitions also require attention.
