PREAMBLE

The Zimbabwe Republic Police is a people-oriented police service provider that seeks to maintain law and order towards the socio-economic development of the people. The organization came up with a Client Service Charter in a bid to clearly spell out the minimum service our clients can expect from the ZRP. The document was crafted with a view to entrench a results based performance culture within the organization that will enhance police service delivery.
