Seems like an easy fix instead of making employees wait to transfer for 18 months, limit their exposure to four to six months with a maximum amount of viewing per day....
It’s a job that has to be done, you should not have to expose yourself to toxic amounts of viewing horrific images...
It's not always an easy fix. I was supposed to work on a project with that stuff. I refused. There was no way I wanted to see that stuff. It didn't help my career with that company at that time but there was no alternative.
Yup, making the rotation time shorter would likely help a lot. I think it would be also wise in that the risk of getting numb/desensitized to the garbage doesn’t help either the job or the person doing it.
I know a detective in our police department who was assigned to this duty. He could only handle about a month of it. I can’t imagine watching a minute of it.
The feds do not like this crime and they take it very seriously. Perverts who get nailed for child porn in Federal Court do not get a slap on the wrist.
