Cooperation between the Slovenian Armed Forces and the Police in the recruitment process

Slovenska vojska in Policija sta ključni organizaciji znotraj nacionalnovarnostnega sistema Republike Slovenije. Pri pridobivanju kadrov se obe organizaciji soočata s številnimi izzivi, ki se, glede na aktualno stanje v družbi, odražajo v obči spremembi vrednot in posledično spremenjenem trgu dela. Slovenska vojska in Policija s svojo togo strukturo s težavo naslavljata te spremembe, kar pomembno vpliva na proces pridobivanje kadra. Z izzivi se obe organizaciji spopadata tudi na trgu dela, saj konkurirata za kader z drugimi organizacijami. Kljub temu da sta obe organizaciji del nacionalnovarnostnega sistema, sta si hkrati konkurenčni pri pridobivanju novih kadrov. Idejni predlogi o možnosti sodelovanja na področju pridobivanja kadra med obema organizacijama so bili javnosti predstavljeni že v preteklosti. Na podlagi strokovne literature, normativno-pravnih aktov in strokovnih intervjujev ugotavljam, da imata Slovenska vojska in Policija več stičnih točk pri pogojih za vstop v organizacijo, ki predstavljajo dobro izhodišče za sodelovanje. Prav te stične točke so razlog za lasten model sodelovanja med obema organizacijama pri pridobivanju kadra. Model kadrovskega sodelovanja temelji na ideji pretoka kadra iz Slovenske vojske v Policijo po nekaj letih služenja. Organizaciji bi s takšno sistemsko ureditvijo postali učinkovitejši tako v postopku pridobivanja kot tudi pri nadaljnjem zadrževanju in upravljanju kadrov.The Slovenian Armed Forces and the Police are the key organisations in the National Security System of the Republic of Slovenia. Both organisations face many challenges in the recruitment process which, given the current situation in society, are reflected in a general change in values, and consequently, the changed labour market. The Slovenian Armed Forces and the Police, both having a rigid structure, address the above-mentioned changes with difficulty, which impacts their recruitment process. Both organisations also cope with challenges in the labour market, as they compete for human resources with other organisations. Although they are both part of the National Security System, they compete against each other for new staff. Some conceptual proposals how the two organisations could cooperate in the recruitment process have already been presented to the public. Based on the specialist literature, normative legal acts and expert interviews, I have established that the Slovenian Armed Forces and the Police share several common themes in their conditions for entry in the organisation, which make good starting points for their cooperation. The two organisations could establish their own cooperation model for recruitment purposes based on these common themes. The recruitment cooperation model stems from the idea of a flow of staff from the Slovenian Armed Forces into the Police after a few years of service. Such a systemic solution would render both organisations more effective in the recruitment process, as well as enabling future retention and management of human resources
