We are an association working to ensure the best employment, health and welfare outcomes for our members and their families – on duty and off duty.
Our vision is to be the trusted guardian of the wellbeing of the police family. We do this by representing and supporting our members through a combination of advocacy and industrial expertise, and by providing cost effective and well-managed welfare products.
We have 11,500 members comprising 99% of constabulary police officers across all ranks and 75% of Police employees. That collective strength gives us credibility to advocate for our members in the public domain, with politicians and with Police.
The fight for fair pay, resources and safe working conditions for NZ police officers began in 1913, and in 1936 the NZ Police Association was legally formed. Now, more than eighty years later, the ever-changing nature of police work presents a myriad of demanding and often dangerous challenges for our members.
Our members’ interests are represented at national level by elected board members, and at the regional level by elected committees.
Police Association membership also entitles members to join the Police Welfare Fund Limited. This non-profit organisation negotiates specifically for members and provides them with high quality services and products at very competitive rates.
