Patrol leader
A patrol leader is a professional function in the public service (field service).
Regular police
Strip leader in the German police is a superior and person in charge of a police patrol in the police service .
The patrol leader has a professional function and is responsible for the activities and processes as well as for the behavior of his subordinate officers. This includes control of activities, orientation about activities (who is doing what and who is available?), Knowledge of their locations, deployment of personnel, coordination (time and space) and communication (arrangements, assignments), etc.
This becomes all the more difficult if the group is divided up several times, for example into half-groups, strips and squads, and possibly also scattered.
The number of subordinate workers is usually one officer ; It is not uncommon for young professionals and interns to be included. In the case of employing hundreds , the number can increase to approx. 12 people. In this case the officer is a patrol leader and a squad leader in one person.
Who is a patrol leader depends on the division of the superior. The guideline here is primarily the official title or seniority ( seniority ), secondary experience and tertiary age . Mostly they are experienced officers who hold at least the official title of police chief . The decision is documented on the duty roster .
