E-911 Telecommunicator

The term public safety telecommunicator is used to describe those communications professionals who perform call taking and dispatching duties. A public safety telecommunicator may be assigned to call taking only, dispatching only or may perform both functional responsibilities.

The position of public safety telecommunicator involves more than answering the phone and sending response units to calls for service. Public safety communications has evolved into a specialized and professional field of endeavor requiring the application of knowledge, attributes and skills not commonly found in other occupations.

Our full time telecommunicators work 12 hour shifts following the Pitman Schedule in a climate controlled 24 hour call center that is open 365 days per year. After completing the training process, our Part-Time Telecommunicators work 20 hours per week with an option to work additional hours if available as staffing needs arise.
