Who is responsible for deciding if recruits will work on holidays?

The Delaware State Police Academy staff is responsible for deciding if recruits will work on holidays. This decision falls under the purview of the Academy's administrative body, which manages scheduling and training logistics. The staff considers operational needs, training requirements, and the overall development of recruits when determining work assignments, including holiday shifts. Such decisions ensure that the training program maintains a structured environment conducive to the growth and education of recruits, balancing workload with necessary time for rest and personal time.

Other choices may involve entities or individuals who have a role in law enforcement or oversight but do not directly manage the day-to-day operations and scheduling of recruits within the Academy. For example, a municipal agency or state law enforcement commission may set broader policies or regulations but lack the direct involvement in the specific scheduling decisions for recruits. Allowing recruits to decide for themselves could lead to inconsistencies and scheduling conflicts that could hinder their training and operational readiness.
