Patrolmen Have
Shorter Hours
State Highway patrolmen’s
work week has been reduced from
60 to 48 hours in a step prelimin
ary to placing in effect a modern
selective enforcement program
designed to improve operating ef
ficiency, Chief Highway Commis
sioner Claude R. McMillan said
this week.
Selective enforcement is a plan
whereby the Department compiles
accident and violation data in
special form to determine needed
patrol strength at any time of
day or night, and the most effec
tive distribution of this strength.
This is a modern, scientific ap
proach to enforcement designed
to remove guesswork and thereby
get the most efficient use of the
time of patrolmen the official
explained. Machine Records are
used in compiling the data requir
ed for the new type program.
For a number of years, the
chief highway official said, patrol
men have been on duty 10 hours
each day, six days per week. Dur
ing “on duty” hours they have had
to look after servicing their patrol
cars, meet court td* prosecute vio
lators, and attend to related du
ties while also carrying on their
regular enforcement work. Under
the new program they will still
have these same duties to ^ per
form, but will be expected, through
more efficient use of time, to give
a greater percentage of their ac
tual hours on duty strictly to en
forcement work. Hours on duty
will be atranged so as to best take
care of enforcement needs, as re
flected by selective enforcement
data.
Mr. McMillan said he believed
patrolmen could cut down consid
erably on the time spent in court
by working closely with magis
trates in having cases properly
scheduled. “I am confident all lo
cal court officials will work close
ly with us in this change design
ed to improve operating efficien
cy as well as give patrolmen more
time with their families and more
time for recreation,” the Chief
Highway Commissioner said.
Mr. McMillan said that the De
partment had greatly improved
patrol supervision and patrol ef
ficiency during the last several
years, and that with continued
improvement in these areas the
48-hour work week would work
out successfully. He added that
the Department’s objective was to
eventually provide a 40-hour work
week, if the present plan proves
effective. Just when a 40-hour
week can be placed in effect will
depend, he said, on how well pa
trolmen perform under the 48-
hour week, and on continued im
provement of supervision at all
levels.
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Culclasure
and Mr. and Mrs. “Wink” Dawk
ins spent several days last week
in the mountains at Gatlinburg.
