Unit mission statement

The unit has a mission to derive trust through security and provide the society with the freedom to interact and undertake different all activities without fear. The ability of the people to have freedom of mind will rely on the measures taken to eliminate insecurity and enhance security. This mission calls for dedication to the calling and self-actualization of the team players in the unit. The department will back up all efforts to maintain security and support all the stewards of peace and security in the locality. Acquiring the confidence of the people is a gradual procedure that will take time to win the hearts of the people. Demonstrating the abilities in the unit to deliver fully will guarantee maximum security and appreciation for the unit. This mission will enhance integrity and elevate the value of democracy in the region (Margolis & March, 2004). Achievement of the mission will symbolize a secure and crime-free society that will raise responsible citizens (Harris, & Romesburg, 2002). Unit selection criteria

Selecting the teams that will represent the unit is a crucial process. Scrutinizing the abilities possessed by each applicant will ensure that the team selected will be dynamic and competent to undertake the task ahead. Beliefs and character of the candidates are an important area to address during the selection process (Margolis & March, 2004). The unit demands high discipline and a high sensitivity to insecurity. The candidates must therefore have passion to serve in the unit and show signs of response to instructions. The unit rules demand that any wiling candidate must be ready to work under harsh conditions to deliver fully to their vocation. The selected team takes oath to work effortlessly to safeguard their state and promote lawfulness.

All the members of the unit will be required to have acquired training in a course related to the unit for familiarity and career development. The knowledge acquired from different institutions will be necessary, as basic knowledge on policing is necessary when joining different units (Harris, & Romesburg, 2002). The officers must be physically fit to ensure their ability to withstand any situation that may require immediate physical response. The successful candidates will receive ample training on their assignments and received grading according to lessons learnt. The training sessions will incorporate both physical and psychological lessons that will increase the competence of the selected team to serve (Margolis & March, 2004). Once the selected team has been prepared for office, they will get all the materials and equipment to address insecurity and other atrocities. The administration will undertake all duties involving salaries, leaves and other administrative functions. The selected team will consult with the administration in case of any concerns regarding their assignment.

Unit budget

The unit will incur expenses that will enable the unit to begin its activities. Part of the set ups made will apply to the operations even after the recruitment. The purchases will take place through the inventory. These items will serve the purposes of recruitment, induction and sustain the unit’s operations. Once the team has received ample training and the trainers compensated, the methods used will receive evaluation to weigh their efficacy and relevance to the unit’s mission and vision (Harris, & Romesburg, 2002). All the monies used for different functions are subject for accountability to allow transparency and integrity. The financial resources provided to the unit will empower the leaders to oversee the unit with zeal.
