Deputy Sheriff Job Description

Patrols the County to provide a visible deterrent in uniform and in marked cars; enforces laws and ordinances to protect life and property; monitors commercial and residential areas for signs of criminal activity.

Responds to calls for assistance, disturbance calls, and complaints of crimes; enforces federal, state, and local laws by performing warrant, felony, or misdemeanor arrests; protects the civil rights of persons in custody; uses non-deadly and deadly force to protect oneself, other deputies, and citizens.

While performing the duties of this job, the employee frequently works in outside all weather conditions.

The employee occasionally works near moving mechanical parts and in high, precarious places and is occasionally exposed to wet and/or humid conditions, fumes or airborne particles, toxic or caustic chemicals, and risk of electric shock.

Work is performed in both daylight and at night and may require travel speeds in excess of posted limits through areas of varying population densities and traffic congestion, and under a variety of unsafe road conditions caused by inclement weather conditions.

Work involves an exposure to personal danger, psychological stress, and hazardous situations.

This in no way limits the duties assigned to a Deputy Sheriff, as occasions may arise that are not predicted and must be handled in a quick and precise manner.
