Pay, Terms & Conditions
The Superintending ranks are the senior operational leaders of the service, they carry significant responsibility and provide the leadership across all aspects of operational policing to keep the people of Scotland safe. Policing in Scotland is undergoing major reform and the roles and responsibilities of the superintending ranks continue to envolve. It is important that pay reflects the significant responsibilities of our members. This Association is committed to ensuring a fair pay settlement for our members. We are also committed to ensuring that other terms and conditions of service are reasonable, realistic and fair.
