999 Call Handler in Bootle, Merseyside

on 5 August 2022

Rewarding and entertaining

So nerve wracking during the interview stage, but really thorough training programme and support from line managers and supervisors when starting the job after training. 9 month probation period and it takes about 2 years to feel comfortable in the role. Some really interesting calls, lots of mental health issues. Pay is not great but the shift allowance makes a huge difference.

Hard working environment with some rewards

On joining Merseyside police it was my dream job. As the years progress, changes in laws and red tape begin to take over. However still an enjoyable job with some rewards but is demanding and stressful times. With very little work life balance. But still an enjoyable job.
