CALCULATING THE NUMBER <br /> OF <br /> PATROL OFFICERS TO STAFF ONE BEAT <br /> To determine the number of patrol officers necessary to cover a single <br /> beat, we must subtract the number of hours an officer is unavailable for <br /> duty, because of days off, vacation, holidays, sick leave, etc. from 2920 (8 <br /> hours per day x 365 days = 2920). The remaining hours represent the net <br /> hours an officer is actually available for patrol. That figure can then be <br /> used to calculate the number of officers required to staff a beat and the <br /> • umber needed to adequately staff the force. <br /> ci , - Att 66.0, ' <br /> i-7725/yi2 AVAILABILITY FACTOR Hours/Year <br /> vo Days Off (40 hours work week) (2o& ) 832 <br /> )O7-- Vacation (Patrol Officer average 11 1/2 days /year)( /t 91 <br /> Z7 Holidays (11 day /year) 3 Ati6 (4%a y -10657 &n- 88 <br /> G yAZ ENO <br /> l5 Training ,4y6 M t-icen_ 225 <br /> 36 Sick Time (P.D. budget estimate) 41/6 ten_ othc6/L- 35 <br /> /Or) TOTAL HOURS UNAVAILABLE FOR PATROL <br /> ( /27 <br /> ZS zo 12 / <br /> When the figure 1-6M is subtracted from 2, 920, the result shows that <br /> �- each officer provides 17849 hours an duty per year. <br /> / ` Z3 16ic <br /> To determine the number of patrol officers necessary to staff one beat, <br /> 20 the figure 2,920 is divided by $- ,-&'*S.
