The Lancaster County Sheriff's Office recognizes that off-duty law enforcement and security work within Lancaster County is a force multiplier. The additional personnel enhance the safety and security of the community we serve. Deputies may be hired by organizations or individuals for law enforcement and security services.
These duties are performed outside of a deputy's regular schedule for the Sheriff's Office, but all deputies maintain their full uniform and all arrest powers. Requests by employers for both long-term employment as well as single day events will be considered by the Sheriff.
Hiring a Deputy
Anyone hiring an off-duty Deputy must show proof of one million dollars in general liability insurance. Employers must agree to the terms and conditions of employment.
