An off-duty police officer brings something no private guard can: sworn peace-officer authority. For situations where that authority matters — alcohol service, road closures, volatile terminations — we coordinate the department approvals, insurance, and scheduling so you get the officer without the paperwork maze.

Why Sites Choose National Protective Service
Our clients renew at 99% because the fundamentals never slip: officers show up trained, posts are supervised, and every shift is documented. Off Duty Police Officer is not a line item to us — it is the work our reputation stands on.
How Department Coordination Works
Off-duty details run through police department secondary-employment programs, each with its own approvals and rules. We handle that machinery: verifying each officer’s authorization, carrying the required insurance, managing schedules, and supervising the detail. You sign one agreement and make one call — the department paperwork, officer sourcing, and compliance stay on our desk.
Also Available: off duty police patrol services
If your risk picture includes more than one exposure, off duty police patrol services can run under the same agreement — one supervisor, one reporting format, one invoice. We will scope both in the same assessment visit.
Straight Answers on Pricing
Security pricing depends on a handful of factors: armed or unarmed coverage, shift hours, site risk, and contract length. Rather than publish numbers that fit nobody, we quote after a short conversation about your site — and the quote is firm, itemized, and free. Multi-site programs and longer contracts earn meaningful volume pricing, and we will always tell you when a lower-cost option covers your risk just as well.
Licensed, Trained, and Accountable
Every post is staffed by California BSIS-licensed officers (PPO 120545), and our team follows professional standards aligned with ASIS International, the leading association for security management professionals; you can verify our California PPO license 120545 directly on the California Bureau of Security and Investigative Services (BSIS) registry. The same documented standard covers off duty law enforcement officers — training, verification, and paperwork you can check, not just claims on a website.
Coverage You Can Count On
