What is Sector Policing?
Sector policing is an approach to policing whereby the service area of a police station is divided into smaller, manageable areas known as sectors. For each sector, the SAPS appoints a police official who is known as the sector commander.
The community and its sector commander are active partners in ensuring local safety and security.
The sector commander involves all role-players in
- identifying the policing needs in the sector; and
- dealing with the root causes of crime and factors that contribute to crime.
The goal is to bring about effective crime prevention by launching intelligence-driven crime-prevention projects in partnership with the local community.
Advantages of Sector Policing
Sector Policing
- is a practical form of community policing as it involves policing smaller, more manageable areas;
- ensures more effective crime prevention, because attention is given to the causes of crime and the factors and circumstances that allow crime to take place in a sector;
- contributes to community involvement, which leads to sound partnerships between the police and the community;
- encourages and enables communities to take greater responsibility for their own safety and security;
- improves the relationship between the police and the community, which increases the community’s trust in, respect for and understanding of the police, reduces the fear of crime and improves service delivery by the police; and
- is policing at its most basic.
