Chair Hudson asks about security guard and peace officer vacancy rates
Hudson asks vacancy rates. Priester says DHS does not track aggregate security guard vacancy; the peace officer vacancy rate is 20%.
And what is the current vacancy rate for shelter security guards?
So that is not something that we track as an aggregate.
Okay.
Unfortunately.
Sorry.
However, so as we've kind of discussed, there's the DHS peace officers, and we can provide information there.
And then there's the provider system that contracts with security.
So that's a moving target.
I don't think it would be easy for us to ever give you a good number on that figure.
Understood.
But Deputy Commissioner can report on DHS peace officers.
On the peace officers?
Okay.
Do you have a vacancy rate for the peace officers specifically?
20%.
20%.
