I recently transferred into a new unit within my police department. I'm not wrong in saying the following conditions are inhumane?
- Being on call every single shift. This means I could potentially be called out before the first shift of the week, as well as after the last shift of the week.
- Being required to leave my personal car at work so I can take the work vehicle home. I am also not allowed to use the work vehicle at home, which means I have no vehicle for personal use.
- Being potentially required to work anywhere within about a 10 hour drive, and then being required to stay the night.
- Excessive amount of overtime (potentially up to 40 hours a week).
