Getting More Women into Federal Policing

According to the Department of Justice, the percentage of women in law enforcement jobs has remained stagnant for decades, hovering around 10-15% of total officers. For federal law enforcement positions, the number is approximately the same, with 13% of the total being women.

Recently, GovExec correspondent and frequent GovExec Daily guest Courtney Bublé interviewed Cathy Sanz, president of the group Women in Federal Law Enforcement, about gender issues in federal policing.  In this episode, you’ll hear Courtney’s interview with Sanz on how she sees the problem framed and how it can be ameliorated.
