Being theoretical and empirical in nature, the study presents, considering the assumptions of the Stereotype Content Model, a combina-tion of factors and effects of systemic stereotyping of the police force and its offi cers. On the basis of the author’s empirical research, the relationships between the effects of the process of stereotyping of the police have been determined, recognised as the level of development of moral bonds between police offi cers, and the level of moral development of police organisational units within the system of local and provincial structures. Considering the research fi ndings, the study also provides a number of conclusions for mana-gerial practice that should be aimed at the development of the identifi ed variables, which signifi cantly affect police effectiveness in the area of public safety.
