Integrity in the Singapore Police through the prism of anti-corruption programs: legal aspects

The article discusses the use of the category of integrity among Singapore police officers, as well as some aspects of the country's anti-corruption programs that are implemented and operate in conjunction with the rules of integrity and ethical conduct. Since, today in Ukraine, the issue of integrity in the police is becoming relevant, it becomes necessary to study foreign experience in this regard. In view of the above, it is suggested to pay attention to Singapore's experience in using the category of integrity, as it is in this country that both anti-corruption measures and measures aimed at maintaining integrity are successfully combined. The purpose of the article is to study foreign experience in maintaining integrity among police officers on the example of Singapore, which is valuable in the implementation of this category in the law enforcement agencies of Ukraine. The following methods were used: comparative law - to compare the legal provisions relating to integrity and anti-corruption activities; methods of logical and systematic analysis - to highlight the key points of anti-corruption measures in Singapore and maintain good behavior among police officers. Among the factors that support the good behavior of employees is an improved system of selection and recruitment for the police. Also, an important role is given to the process of training police officers. Attention is drawn to the Singapore police training program, which aims to create a negative understanding of corruption as a phenomenon in police officers. The value training introduced for the basic training courses is characterized by the fact that it contains information on the investigation of the actual cases of police officers accused in court of criminal offenses and corruption. Importantly, the Singapore Police Training Program focuses police awareness on the negativity of corruption.
