Operational Support Officer

Operational Support Officer An Operational Support Officer is distinct and separate from the regular police members at the Abbotsford Police Department. An OSO has restricted peace officer status, but is not a police officer. OSOs are primarily assigned to, and directly support, one of the 4 operational Patrol shifts at AbbyPD. OSOs perform specific, authorized duties under the direction of a regular police officer. The primary purpose of the Operational Support Officer is to assist the regular police members of the Abbotsford Police Department by completing lower-level, lower-risk tasks, as directed by the regular police members. Acting in their support capacity, OSOs help to maximize the available proactive policing time of the regular members. On their own, OSOs can also complete proactive tasks within the approved guidelines of the position. OSOs can also be tasked to assist with community and public events throughout Abbotsford.
