TRUTHFULNESS AGREEMENT
Thank you for applying to the Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan Police Department. We are extremely proud of our
Department and our reputation. We view our personnel decisions as one of our most critical tasks. We are very selective
and only hire the best and the brightest. Even if you meet our standards and pass our hiring requirements, your
selection for employment is not guaranteed.
One of the most critically important issues that define the effectiveness of any organization is the perception that it is a
credible organization. Central to that image is the integrity and truthfulness of the Department’s employees, from the
newest entrant to the top-level managers.
The need for honest, impartial and accurate representation of facts is nowhere more vital than within a police agency,
where success or failure rests with the degree of public support it receives. Police officers have unique power that rests on
the foundation of their honesty and integrity. Public support can quickly erode where there is a lack of credibility in
existence within an organization. The other elements of the criminal justice system that rely on truthful testimony from
officers are instantly compromised when one of our members is less than forthright.
The very basis of an individual’s integrity, as perceived by the public, friends and fellow workers is at stake whenever the
truth is not told. The loss of integrity can quickly erode where there is a lack of credibility in existence within an
organization.
It is the responsibility of all members of this Department to maintain the effectiveness of their Police agency as a viable
law enforcement organization. This document serves notice that the employees of the SCMPD will not tolerate lying
of any kind, either by their co-workers or by SCMPD applicants. As an applicant, you have been forewarned: All
information disclosed or gleaned during the application process WILL be verified by means of a polygraph examination
and background investigation. Any statements or omissions, either written or verbal that are given by any applicant with
the intent to deceive will result in rejection from further consideration for employment with the Savannah-Chatham
Metropolitan Police Department. There are NO second chances. There is simply no substitute for the truth.
I acknowledge that I have read and understand the statement provided above.

A sworn Officer hired, as of April 1, 1998, to work for the City of Savannah, in the Savannah Chatham
Metropolitan Police Department cannot use tobacco in any form whatsoever. The employee shall remain free
from the use of tobacco products throughout the term of employment. Furthermore, the use of tobacco products
after employment, or any false or materially misleading representation by the employee as to being a nonsmoker or non-user of tobacco products at the time of employment, shall constitute grounds for termination of
employment.
By accepting employment with the City of Savannah, Savannah Chatham Metropolitan Police Department and

Chief of Police of this fact and tender my resignation.

SHIFT WORK EXPECTATIONS ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
By signing this form, you are acknowledging your understanding that as a Police Officer with Savannah
Chatham Metro Police Department you will be expected to work various shifts. The current departmental shift
structure is 6:30 AM to 3:00 PM, 2:30 PM to 11:00 PM, and 10:30 PM to 7:00 AM. The morning and evening
shifts rotate. Your shift assignment will not be one of your choosing, but rather assigned to you according to
what shift needs covered. Police Officers are expected to work 5 days a week with two days off, with your days
off probably not falling on Saturday and Sunday. In some cases, such as big City events, you will be required to
work beyond your assigned shift days and times.
As an Officer, you will not be granted the same holidays that the rest of the City employees. You more than
likely will not have any major holidays off such as Thanksgiving or Christmas. You will not be permitted to
take vacation until after your 1 year probation as a Police Officer is over, and even then, it will be approved at
the discretion of your supervisor.
I ________________________________________ acknowledge and understand the terms and conditions of a
Police Officer’s work schedule and, if chosen for employment, agree to abide by the aforementioned terms and
conditions, along with any other situation that might arise regarding my work schedule.
