The police's mental health must be prioritized in Sweden's rearmament of the police

Sweden equips the police with more training, employees and tools against serious and organized crime, but the mental health of the police is overlooked despite the fact that they are exposed to violence, death, suicide and other traumatic events. Research shows an increased risk of stress-related ill-health, depression and suicide, and organizational factors such as high workloads and a culture of silence exacerbate the situation.
