THE BIDDING
PROCESS
When bidding
from one district or unit to another, you are bidding on
a recognized vacancy. When you
are bidding on a position within your unit or district,
such as desk, watch relief, review, etc, you are bidding
on a recognized opening. If you
are requesting a transfer, that
means you are asking the Police Department to use their
20% management prerogative to transfer you and, in this
case, you would check the box marked transfer
on the PAR form. It is very important that you fill the
PAR form out correctly, no matter which of the above
actions you are requesting.
When filling
out the PAR form, read each box and enter the
information correctly. If the action you are requesting
does not require you to fill a box in, leave it blank.
On the right side of the PAR form, you will see what
signatures are required for each action. When bidding
for a recognized opening, please
remember to enter the unit notice number and when
bidding on a recognized vacancy,
please remember to enter the administrative message
number. The box for this is under the personnel transfer
and assignment section.
When you are
biding for an opening or vacancy, please take an extra
moment or two to double check your PAR form. If you have
any questions, call the FOP office during business hours
and we will do our best to answer your questions and
ensure that your request will be honored.
Finally, and
most importantly, according to a Memorandum of
Understanding contained in the Contract, if
you do not sign the PAR form, it will not be accepted!
IMPORTANT:
In addition to mailing the copies of the PAR form to
MLAS unit #129 via department mail, we suggest that you
also FAX a copy to them at 312-745-6945 and then contact
them during regular business hours to assure that they
have received it.
If you have
any questions, please call Sid Davis at F.O.P.
312-733-7776.
