What's the difference between an auxiliary police and a policeman?

Auxiliary police

The post of police coordinator is to "assist" the police force, which belongs to the professional group prevention and treatment team and does not have the power of administrative law enforcement. From the institutional nature, although the joint police force is a financial subsidy institution, it is not a first-class authorized joint defense team. The police coordinator must carry out all the work under the leadership of the police.

Auxiliary police

Auxiliary police (auxiliary police) refers to the personnel who are funded by the government, employed by the public security organs through written examination, interview, political examination and physical examination, and have established labor relations with them, and engaged in police auxiliary work under the command and supervision of the public security organs and their people's police.

The difference between the two

The first is the difference in the recruitment process:

The recruitment of auxiliary police is generally a bit formal, and it will go through registration → written examination → interview → physical examination → political examination → publicity → employment and other links. The police assistant is generally simpler, which may be just registration → written examination → physical examination → publicity → employment, or it may be a direct physical fitness test, even without a written test.

Second, the work content is different:

Auxiliary police are generally personnel who assist the police in the police station to implement joint defense of public security. The police coordinator is usually a traffic police squadron, which assists the traffic police in managing traffic order. But this is not absolute.
