American Police Beat Magazine wants to know: how often does your department hold officers over for forced overtime, either due to being shortstaffed or for other reasons?

In these days of tight budgets, ALMOST NEVER. Even on large and complex scenes, every officer with the exception of the reporting officer, will be promptly relieved by someone from the next shift.

Depends on what is going on in the city. For big events, everyone who is off will be ordered in for OT.
