POLICY
Non-Sworn members of the Sheriff’s Office are highly visible representatives of county
government and are entrusted with supporting the delivery of effective police services to the
community. As a valuable resource in the law enforcement field, non-sworn members of the
Sheriff’s Office must conduct themselves in a manner consistent with their position.
Because of the important, confidential and often sensitive nature of the various functions
performed by non-sworn members, it is necessary to hold them to the highest standard of
conduct possible.
Non-Sworn personnel shall not engage in any course of conduct which, when viewed in the
context of contemporary standards, would bring discredit to members of the
