Should you decide that creating your own schedule is not ideal and not having a permanent schedule is not for you, please let us know immediately so that we can find a better fit job / schedule for you.

Dear New Officer,

Rover officers can be assigned up to 24 permanent hours per week, the remaining 16 hours per week are on call hours (unscheduled). Should you decide that being on call and / or not having full time permanent schedule is not for you, please let us know immediately so that we can find a better fit job / schedule for you.

Rover Pay Rates:

$16 per hour / $17 per hour for officers with level 3 and TWIC card working TWIC sites

I understand that:

1. I must maintain an active Texas driver’s license.

2. I must maintain an active security license.

3. Officers with active TWIC card will receive $16 per hour for shifts where TWIC is required.

4. I must fulfill my duties at every post to which I am assigned. If unsure of the post orders, I will let the scheduler know so that training can be scheduled.

5. I must be available to work weekends, overnights and holidays when needed.

6. Some shifts offered could be as few as 6 hours and as much as 16. I agree to be cross trained at as many contract locations as possible.

7. I must return calls from the Scheduler or Account Manager within 30 minutes.

8. I must maintain a working cell/smart phone with the eHub application downloaded and running so that I may receive open shift notifications. Any changes in cell phone number must be reported to the Scheduler or the main office immediately.

9. Shift Refusal - should I refuse a shift; the refusal will be tracked in my personnel file. I understand that I am allowed 1 shift refusal per month (1 every 30 days). Should I exceed this total, my eligibility as a Rover officer could be revoked and I may be assigned a permanent job site at a lesser pay rate.

10. Should I have 2 or more instances of being unreachable or not returning a call by the scheduler within 1 hour in any 30-day period, my eligibility for Rover employment will be suspended and I will be assigned a permanent schedule at post pay rates.

Performance Penalty: poor performance reported by a customer will result in wages for the shift in question being reduced to minimum wage. You will be notified should this occur and will be counseled by management for performance improvement. You will have the opportunity to state your case as to why a penalty should not be levied. The final decision is made by the Account Manager of the site in question.
