Common use of Filling Assignments Clause in Contracts

Filling Assignments. Secondary employment is voluntary and done on an officer’s time off from the department. Therefore, it can never be guaranteed that an off-duty assignment will be filled. The employer may request that a particular officer or officer(s) staff a job; however, whether this officer or officer(s) actually are employed at this job is at the discretion of the Concord Police Department. When an employer asks to hire a Concord Police Department officer, it is understood that ANY eligible officer may in fact work the job. Under extraordinary circumstances, off-duty officers may be activated to an on-duty status and pulled away from their off-duty assignments. The priority of Concord Police Department officers is their full time assignment within the Police Department and any obligations, such as call-back or court, which come with their Concord Police Department assignment.
