The National Police must be more to hire people with a multicultural background, otherwise it loses the police support in the society. That said Max Daniel, commissioner of police and the North of the Netherlands and general commander of National Staff large-Scale Research, in an interview with the Volkskrant.
According to Daniel, the police do not have sufficient a reflection of the society. In addition, flow agents with a migration background, not often enough, to higher functions, ” he says. The Dutch east-Indies Daniel is in the top at the National Police, the only one with a non-western background.
He argues that the importance of ethnic diversity is not sufficiently felt by the leadership. “Take that discussion on ethnic profiling. It’s part of our job, but now the problem is that it is often linked to racism and skin color. We can as an organization say that it is not justified, but that we determine not. So is it just to be polite.”
Daniel says that people with a multicultural background in it can play a major role in the police. “I’m looking for people that can explain why a part of the society thinks that they are ethnically profiled and that we are racist. People who can tell you how that image of the police can tilt.”
police Chief Erik Akerboom tells the newspaper that he the story of Daniel to recognize. “There is the past years, little is gained when it comes to the more diverse of the police.” Akerboom says that he would be there the next time work want to make.
