An etymological study of the concept of «social protection» was carried out. Different approaches to defining social protection were analyzed. The concept of social protection in a broad and narrow sense was considered.
The Law of Ukraine «On the National Police» declares that a police officer fully enjoys the guarantees of social and legal protection provided for by the mentioned Law and other legislative acts. The Law of Ukraine «On the National Police» uses the term social protection, the meaning of which is broader than the meaning of the term social security.
The Law of Ukraine «On the National Police» provides the following guarantees of social protection of a police officer: provision of appropriate conditions for the performance of duties assigned to him; prompt and full payment of financial support and other compensatory payments in accordance with the law and other regulatory legal acts of Ukraine; full use of guarantees of social and legal protection; during the performance of police powers, he uses all types of public transport for free. However, chapter 9 «Social protection of police officers» is devoted to a wider range of social protection guarantees.
The guarantees of social protection of police officers were studied, which included: material support, housing support, medical support and professional support.
