Background Investigation Manual: Guidelines for the Investigator

The "POST Background Investigation Manual: Guidelines for the Investigator" provides guidance to assist background investigators in the conduct of background investigations of both peace officers and public safety dispatchers. The Manual was revised in December 2009 to incorporate the new POST selection requirements for peace officers and public safety dispatchers (Commission Regulations 9050-9060) that went into effect July 2009. The Manual contains descriptions of the statutory and regulatory requirements that must be addressed as part of the background investigation.
