The basis for the mutation of members of the National Police

Citing the official website of the Pusdik Binmas Lemdiklat National Police, the mutation of National Police members is based on the Chief of Police Regulation number 16 of 2012 concerning Movements of Indonesian Police Members.

Movements referred to here are transfers of members from one position to another, either promotion, equal, or demotion.

Mutations can also be in the form of inter-regional mutations, namely the transfer of members between Polda or between Functional Units (Satfung) within the National Police Headquarters or from REgional police to National Police Headquarters or vice versa without designating a position.

According to the Chief of Police Regulation No. 16/2012, the transfer of members of the INP is carried out by considering several aspects, including:

- Placement of the right members in the right position according to the competence and performance of the duties they have

- Direction of utilizing member career coaching

- Reward and punishment

- Experiencing illness/permanent disability or critical illness as evidenced by a complete medical examination

- Following the transfer of husbands/wives who work for government agencies, National Police, TNI, and BUMN

- Have important reasons that can be justified.
