Denial of shooting and the security of the Military Police in the State of Paraná: An invitation for analysis and institutional research

Abstract

Military police officers work exposed to risks to their physical and vital integrity, whether due to the need for constant attention, decision-making in risky situations, the unpredictability of daily work or the possible need to handle firearms. The military police of the state of Paraná, through changes in firearm equipment in recent years, highlighted a problem related to the refusal to fire when ammunition is discarded. That way, this article aims to propose and encourage reflections, future research and institutional measures related to ammunition and work equipment.
