Common use of Occupational screening Clause in Contracts

Occupational screening. The Sacramento Police Department undertook a full examination of its occupational screening processes to determine which elements could be modified to incorporate the service orientation. Psychological screening: Throughout the course of the project, the psychological screening dimensions developed by the POST also were under review. The current iteration of psychological dimensions includes social competence, capacity for teamwork, adaptability-flexibility, conscientiousness, dependability, impulse control, attention to safety, integrity, emotional regulation and stress tolerance, decision making and judgment, assertiveness, persuasiveness, and avoiding substance abuse and other risk taking behaviors. Each dimension is defined and examples of positive and counterproductive behaviors are provided. Current consensus is that these dimensions may be more accurately assessed by responses to psychological evaluations instead of citizen interviews.
