Police protection establishments are government agencies engaged in criminal and civil law enforcement, traffic safety, patrol operations, investigations, and preservation of public order. Day-to-day operations involve uniformed officers on patrol, response to emergency calls, arrest and detention activity, evidence handling, and use of government vehicles and weapons. Some jurisdictions combine police and fire services under a single department.
Questions to investigate
- Is the department currently placed through a public entity risk pool, self-insurance program, or private market?
- Does the department have a formal written pursuit policy and documented use-of-force training program?
- What is the approximate number of sworn officers versus civilian employees?
- Are police and fire operations combined under a single department?
