Common use of Early Intervention System Clause in Contracts

Early Intervention System. 268. MPD will acquire and maintain an Early Intervention System that meets industry standard to collect and provide information to supervisors that enables them to proactively identify at-risk behavior by officers under their command, and to provide individualized interventions and support to address the at-risk behavior. MPD must provide supervisors with an automated electronic system that provides this information and equips supervisors to perform these duties. The Early Intervention System should identify for supervisors, any officers who may need assistance or guidance to support their careers. Providing support for officers in need of assistance improves officers’ overall wellbeing and success and also proactively addresses any indication of potential discriminatory policing. The system is not punitive or disciplinary in nature, rather, it is meant to identify officers who may need assistance or guidance and the system is entirely separate from the City’s and MPD’s accountability systems for officers and other employees.
