Part-time: Experience must include the total number of hours worked, or it will not be credited. When calculating part-time work, the total hours worked should be prorated based on a rate of 172 hours/month to produce a months-worked claim.

Examples:

If a candidate worked part time for a total of 220 hours, the calculation would be 220 hours divided by 172 hours, resulting in 1.28 months of work. This would be rounded to credit for one month of work.

If a candidate worked part time for a total of 670 hours, the calculation would be 670 hours divided by 172 hours, resulting in 3.89 months worked. This would be rounded on the claim form, for a submission of 4 months of employment.

Breaks in Service: HRD will only grant credit for work experience for time spent actually working within a department. Leaves of absences or breaks in service for more than six months (consecutive) must be recorded on the EVF. The first six months (180 consecutive days) of a leave of absence will be credited as time worked.

No Double Counting: Do not claim work experience that occurred concurrently in more than one category. Any acting, provisional and/or temporary time submitted will be deducted from the next lower rank.

Crediting "Acting" Service: You may choose to claim any of this experience in the following exam title: Police Chief.

Crediting "Provisional", or "Temporary After Certification" Service: You may choose to claim any of this experience in the following exam titles: Police Chief, Deputy Police Chief, Police Captain, Police Lieutenant and Police Sergeant.
