Salary
- The starting salary for police constables in England, Wales and Northern Ireland is between £20,880 and £24,177, rising to £40,128 at the top of the scale - achievable after about seven years. In Scotland starting salaries are slightly higher at £26,037, rising to £40,878 after about ten years' service.
- The range of salaries for sergeants is £41,500 to £45,098.
- Inspectors can earn between £51,414 and £55,768 (£53,665 and £58,038 in London), rising to between £56,909 and £59,249 for chief inspectors (£59,175 and £61,509 in London).
Hmm it seems the tories lowered the starting wage for the english polis, then. Still, £40k after seven years. Substantially more than a staff nurse will ever get paid. I still think they are relatively over-payed.
