THE NSW Police Force is losing experienced officers not because they dislike their jobs but because they are disgruntled with the organisation and their conditions, a study of recruits has found.

Like police services around the world, NSW is struggling to retain recruits. Officers are leaving at a rate of more than 700 a year, and at last count almost half of the state's frontline police had less than five years' experience.

Janet Chan from the University of NSW's School of Social Science and Policy followed a class of recruits over 10 years. By the final survey in 2005, 20 per cent of the 150-strong group had left, 93 per cent had been promoted and just under half did general duties.

She found officers' satisfaction with their job declined significantly within the first two years, but was restored after nine or 10 years. However, it was these longer-serving officers who were seriously considering leaving.
