Job Description
Working at Baldwin County 9-1-1
Telecommunicators all work shift work. Our shifts are 6am-6pm, 6pm-6am, and 10am-10pm (Peak Shift). The 6-6 personnel rotate days and nights every 4 months. The 10-10 personnel remain on that same schedule. One of our shifts works Sun-Tue every week, the other shift works Wed-Fri every week and both rotate every other Saturday. Shift assignment is based on operational needs for full-time employees, and we do not guarantee a particular shift assignment.
Part-time employees are eligible for up to 30 hours of work time during the 7-day work week. Part-time employees are NOT eligible for the standard benefits package offered to full time employees such as paid time off, health insurance, holiday pay, etc.; however, once the part-time employee works 20 hours in a week, they are enrolled in Alabama Employee State Retirement System and begin building retirement benefits. Additionally, part-time employees are first to be offered full-time positions as they become available.
Part-time employees generally cover leave time taken by full time employees which allows us to always maintain full staffing. Part-time employees are also eligible to work any of the standing open part time shifts (6am-6pm, and 10am-10pm) daily along with signing up for on call shifts (all paid at time and a half), and through our scheduling software can show their availability for work. We have also just begun to allow part time employees to work 8-hour shifts to better accommodate those who need shorter shifts. These shifts are 10am-6pm or 2pm-10pm.
Part time employees are required to attend training a minimum of 3 days in a 7-day work week during training. We have tried just 2 days and employees have not been successful. If you choose to submit your application, once you pass our background check you will then be sent a link to our online assessment platform. You can take this in the comfort of your home, or we have accommodations for you as it does require a laptop with speakers. More information will be sent to you if you return your application. Upon successful completion of the online assessment, we will move onto the interview portion of our process.
