Decision on Project for Better Police Working Conditions

The city of Vienna and the Friends of the Vienna Police presented a project on Friday for improvements in police stations. With 300,000 euros in funding, working conditions are to be optimized and personnel recruitment supported. Specifically, it concerns "climate-related measures in particularly stressed stations" as well as securing the continued operation of the Info-Store at Schottenring as a contact point for potential new recruits.

Info-Store in Vienna with Thousands of Visitors

In the first one and a half years, over 3,000 people, from entire school classes to civilians individually interested in a police career, visited the information center. This was said to have "led to a doubling of the number of people in police training in Vienna to around 800." The Info-Store has "proven to be an essential tool for recruiting new police officers," said Mayor Michael Ludwig (SPÖ).
