Can Police/Correction officer work part time?

Question

if just entering force?

Answer 1

Yes.

For states that have "POST" certification, this is how officers not hired by a department to go through training end up getting on with a department eventually.  Its not too uncommon, but talk with your department.  Some departments have Auxilary (volunteer) Officers too

Answer 2

Yes, there are several agencies in my area that hire part time, for both corrections and law enforcement.

Answer 3

You sure can.

Answer 4

Even when they are at work at full time they still only work part time. Most of the time its just standing around.

Answer 5

I would say you could probably easily get working time being a reservist...
