Special Duty for Supervisors. Special duty will be offered to sworn members of the Division in the order of Officer, Lieutenant, Captain. For an event in which Officers are required, Lieutenants may work in the place of Officers if no Officers wish to work the event and Captains may work in place of officers if no Lieutenants and Officers wish to work the event. For an event in which “supervisors” are required, Captains may work in the place of Lieutenants if no Lieutenants wish to work the event. The Event Commander is the highest ranking supervisor assigned to the event. If there are no command personnel assigned to the event, the Police Watch Commander will be the Event Commander. If an event calls for five Officers, which could include a combination of personnel (i.e. OSU Police officers, Student Safety Service personnel, Transportation and Parking officers, Columbus Police Officers), a supervisor will be added to the assignment. The City of Columbus Police contingent, or any other police agency’s police contingency of officer(s) shall count as one officer. Upon determining the need for a second supervisor at a special duty event, and it is realized that a supervisory mandate will take place, the affected supervisor will be notified as soon as possible. If no Lieutenants sign up for an event that requires a supervisor, and a Captain does not wish to work the event, then the Lieutenants with the lowest number of special duty hours will be assigned to work the event. Once a Lieutenant is mandated for an event, he/she shall receive a “mandate credit.” For future draft situations, a Lieutenant with a mandate credit(s) will not be mandated for an event if he/she has lower special duty hours when compared to another available Lieutenant without a mandate credit(s). The accumulated special duty hours and mandate credits for Lieutenant will be maintained by the Division. If an event requires one or more Captains and an insufficient number of Captains sign up, Captain(s) may be mandated to work the event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the “mandate credit” system for special duty events, consideration will be given for Lieutenants scheduled to work a shift that does not abut the special duty event. For instance, when a special duty event will end after 1:00 and the Lieutenant is scheduled to work day shift the following day, a different Lieutenant may be mandated. The “Seventeen (17) Hour Rule” will also be taken into consideration and consideration will be given to Lieutenants having previously approved leave time on the day before or the day after the event.
