Specifically, the study was out to examine the relationship between; recognition and performance of Police officers at Kampala CPS; job security and performance of Police officers at Kampala CPS and; career advancement opportunities and performance of Police officers at Kampala CPS. The was correlational with the use of mixed approaches on a population of 144 officers from which a sample of 114 officers was selected (using Krejcie & Morgan,1970) using simple random sampling (for the junior officers) and purposive sampling (for the senior officers). The data was collected using a self administered questionnaire and a structured interview guide which were pretested before being used for the data collection process.The data analysis procedure followed descriptive, inferential (for quantitative data) and content analysis for qualitative data. The statistics (ꝭ =0.266; p<0.001), there exists a weak but significant relationship between job security and performance of Police officers at Kampala CPS. Secondly, the statistics (ꝭ =0.415; p<0.001), there exists a moderate but significant relationship between officer recognitionand performance of Police officers at Kampala CPS. Lastly, the statistics (ꝭ =0.481; p<0.001), there exists a moderate but significant relationship between career advancement and performance of of Police officers at Kampala CPS. Basing on the findings, the study recommends that there must be a range of efforts to improve the feelings of the Police officers about their job security and having well drafted contracts that align with hiring laws which would help improve the effect of job security on performance of the officers. Secondly, there must be fairness, transparency and equity in the recognition processes and the bureaucratic processes must be reduced to ensure that recognition significantly affect the performance of the Police officers. Lastly, the Police Force should ensure that there is equal access to career development opportunities to ensure that the effect of career advancement on Police officer performance improves significantly.	en_US
