Police services are constantly engaging with the public. Situations may be simple complaints, to scenarios that are life and death emergencies. LiM understands the gravity of these interactions; we know that clear communication is critical. Understanding the person you are engaging with is of utmost importance. Traditional methods of bringing in a bilingual officer or finding a family member have proven either costly or may result in a lost court case. Leveraging the technology that LiM provides, officers can quickly and easily access law enforcement translation service with a few taps on their smartphone or clicks in their MDT.
In addition, having an interpreter available when engaging with limited English speakers at the front desk or at a community event can produce a friendly image for the Police Service and encourage community trust.
System and office administrators can now be in full control of their language data and understand exactly how many engagements resulted in the use of an interpreter, as well as provide the management team with important demographic insights that otherwise would not be available. Reporting can uncover geographic regions of specific languages or remote communities requiring specific language support.
As our communities become more and more diverse, Law Enforcement, as well as all public-facing organizations are evolving order to communicate with people in their language. While it may be beneficial to hire officers that speak particular languages, an interpreter can act as an independent third party and prove certification, which may be the difference between winning or losing in court. A professionally trained interpreter for the Law Enforcement sector will understand the sensitive nature of each conversation and strictly abide by confidentiality regulations.
