Police officers are often reported to experience high levels of occupational stress, and consequently face numerous effects on their work and home lives. This study examines the reasons behind stress for Canadian police officers, and suggests possible stress reduction techniques to reduce the impact of stress on long-term emotional health. Research was also conducted to identify the feasibility of implementing such techniques in a police subculture. Using a qualitative analysis model, a variety of articles were reviewed in order to determine the prevalence of the issue, and formulate workable solutions.
