Minimum Staffing. It shall be the policy of the Department to maintain an adequate minimum staffing level to safely and effectively conduct our policing mission. This minimum staffing level shall be defined on a day-to-day basis and will be based on campus population, special events, vehicular traffic, emergency conditions, routine patrol operations, and officer safety. All unit members, and only unit members, shall be considered in assessing minimum staffing requirements. Under no circumstances shall a sole Police Officer be required to provide for the safety and protection of the entire District without a cover officer. When staffing falls below minimum staffing levels, overtime shall be authorized. Where minimum staffing has fallen below safe and effective levels and a Supervisor is not present, the most senior Police Officer on duty shall attempt to reach a Supervisor. If unable to contact a Supervisor, the senior Police Officer shall facilitate the required staffing. The District encourages and places value on continuing education that would benefit the employee’s growth within his/her current job classification.
