The project in five facts.
Challenge, approach and results.
The diploma thesis examines the role of judicial police officers in protecting judicial facilities and the possibilities for further development of the protection system. The protection of judicial facilities is essential for the smooth functioning of the judicial system, as these facilities host proceedings that are often personally, legally and emotionally demanding for participants. The purpose of the survey was to determine how employees assess the sense of security, protection during the period of private security services, protection by judicial police, responsiveness of judicial police officers, trust in individual forms of protection and the possibility of extending the system to other judicial facilities. The concluding section presents key findings, proposals for improvements and a vision for further development of the system.
Problem
The diploma thesis examines the role of judicial police officers in protecting judicial facilities and the possibilities for further development of the protection system.
Solution and Method
The protection of judicial facilities is essential for the smooth functioning of the judicial system, as these facilities host proceedings that are often personally, legally and emotionally demanding for participants. Therefore, protection means not only safeguarding buildings and property, but also protecting employees, judges, clients, visitors, data, order and trust in the judicial system. The theoretical section presents the importance and organisation of judicial protection, security risks and the role of judicial police officers, their duties, competences, powers, training and work in practice.
The diploma thesis also includes a comparison between protection by judicial police officers and protection provided by private security services. The research section involved an anonymous online survey among employees at the District Court in Ljubljana, the Higher Court in Ljubljana and the Supreme Court of the Republic of Slovenia.
Results
The purpose of the survey was to determine how employees assess the sense of security, protection during the period of private security services, protection by judicial police, responsiveness of judicial police officers, trust in individual forms of protection and the possibility of extending the system to other judicial facilities. The concluding section presents key findings, proposals for improvements and a vision for further development of the system. It was established that development must not merely mean replacing the protection provider, but rather a comprehensive upgrade of the system with clearer legal regulation, staff reinforcement, stricter entry control, better access control, restricted public movement, technical upgrades and more appropriate spatial organisation of facilities.
Judicial police officers have significant potential for further system development, as through their training, powers and knowledge of the judicial environment they contribute to more effective, professional and trustworthy protection.
