Mansour Rosman, Arieff Salleh H Social Sciences (General) Police personnel, firefighters, and rescue teams were ignored in job satisfaction research. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the impact of material and moral incentives and the difference in job title on job satisfaction among police officers, firefighters and rescue teams in Libya. Using a cross-sectional approach, 176 questionnaires were distributed to a random sample of firefighters and rescue teams in the National Safety Authority in Tripoli, Libya. The results of analysis in SPSS revealed that police officers, firefighters, and rescue teams are prone to show behaviors that lead to counterproductive results such as job dissatisfaction due to poor material and moral incentives provided to fire and rescue teams with no impact of job title. Thus, both policeman and civilian firefighting and rescue personnel can have similar perceptions and experiences of material and moral incentives. Also, both personnel are more motivated by moral incentives than material incentives. This study is one of the pioneers in expanding the discussion of job satisfaction among police officers, firefighters, and rescue teams in Libya. This study also motivates researchers and practitioners to investigate and explain the satisfaction of employees in the police sector in Libya.
