Reserve Officers. Reserve Officers are defined as casual, part-time, intermittent and/or temporary police officers of the OUPD and will not assume the duties of bargaining unit employees in such a way as to cause the displacement or layoff of such employee. Reserve officers shall be provided the opportunity to work at least sixteen (16) hours per month, but shall not work more than 499 hours per year. Reserve officers who go two (2) consecutive months without completing sixteen (16) hours of work shall be released from employment. The Chief of Police, at his sole discretion may retain a Reserve Officer beyond this two (2) month limit if the officer’s inactivity is for reasonable grounds (e.g. short term medical absence). Utilization of Reserve Officers will follow the Reserve Police Officer policy. Any amendment or modification to this policy will require a sixty (60) calendar day notice to the bargaining unit and will provide the bargaining unit opportunity to give input into the policy amendment or modification.
