SHERIFF’S POLICY MANUAL 2.3 CONDUCT UNBECOMING AN EMPLOYEE: Since conduct of employees on or off duty may reflect directly on BSO, they should conduct themselves at all times in a manner which does not discredit themselves, BSO, or the County. [CALEA-C 3.6.1, CALEA 26.1.1] 2.3.1 Being an Accessory to a Disciplinary Offense: Knowingly aiding, abetting, assisting, or soliciting another employee in any way to violate or attempt to violate a rule, order, or directive is prohibited. 2.3.2 Breach of Confidence: Employees shall act at all times in a manner that promotes public confidence in the integrity of BSO and shall not engage in any conduct, on-duty or off-duty, which gives the appearance of impropriety. The test for appearance of impropriety is whether the conduct would create in reasonable minds, with knowledge of all the relevant circumstances, a perception that the employee’s ability to carry out their official responsibilities with integrity, fairness, and competence is impaired. 2.3.3 Corrupt Practices: Employees shall not engage in any activity or scheme, on- duty or off-duty, which is dishonest, illegal or unethical in order to make money or to gain or keep power, authority, or advantage over another. 2.3.4 Disclosure of Confidential or Law Enforcement Agency Sensitive Information: Employees shall treat all official business of the department as confidential, and will not impart it to anyone, either orally, electronically, or in writing, except to those for whom it is intended or under due process of law.
