What are the working conditions at PPB?
Officers work a 40-hour week. Seniority determines shift, days off and vacation. Shifts and weekends are not rotated. However, during probation, new officers’ days off, shifts and assignments are rotated. Officers are considered on duty 24 hours a day and in an emergency are subject to call-out at any time. New officers serve most of their time in uniform patrol. Specialty unit assignments are available on a competitive basis after probation.
