China's Ministry of Public Security is advising police officers nationwide on how to do their job better in the line of duty. The Ministry has put together a video showing how to handle common situations faced by officers when enforcing the law.

For police officers, it's a daily challenge to get the job done effectively yet properly.

The recent case of a young man who died after Beijing police seized him for allegedly soliciting prostitution again raised the question -- what is acceptable police behavior?

To answer that, the Ministry of Public Security has released a demonstration video.

For starters, the badge should be carried at all times. Plain-clothes officers should show it to identify themselves to individuals they deal with.

Officers are required to carry and use video recorders to document the enforcement process. Police batons can be used on bystanders who violently obstruct police work.

Onlookers should be allowed to film officers working as long as it doesn't get in the way of enforcement. Officers are expected to work under civilian supervision, and on camera.

Traffic police are advised to keep their emotions in check to avoid escalating tension in the face of agitated language and actions. They are expected to pay special attention to accompanying children when dealing with drivers.

For police officers, the job comes with danger. And doing it right may make it just a little bit safer for both them and the people they protect.
