Omni-Pol institutes new enforcement initiatives
March 30, 29480 [Global]
OTPC - In wake of a recent surge in criminal behavior and deviance in Omni-Tek cities, as well as increased disobedience to authorities, Omni-Pol has announced new initiatives to keep peace and order strong in our great cities.
"Dissent is not to be tolerated," Omni-Pol Director Ivan Sergeyich simply said. "It is unacceptable. Omni-Tek employees and visitors alike are expected to abide by corporate law and policies at all times."
Director Sergeyich took the time to speak with the OTPC at his office in Omni-HQ. Concerned about the recent rise in problems throughout Omni-Tek cities, he and his command staff decided to implement new initiatives including a revised use-of-force policy in order to curb deviant behavior.
Director Sergeyich explained, "The objective is quite simple: maintaining order. Omni-Pol has been allowed to become more lax in its methods of handling problems. These methods have been revised to allow officers use of a wider array of problem solving techniques.
"Needless to say, individuals refusing to comply with Omni-Pol authority will find the response most unpleasant."
In the past several months, Omni-Pol has seen rebellious and deviant behavior rise significantly. The instances where employees talk back to, threaten, and taunt Omni-Pol officers has become far too common, and as far as Sergeyich is concerned, has crossed the line.
"We have been most agreeable in dealing with these matters," Sergeyich said. "We have allowed some things to go unaddressed. This is not the case anymore. Clearly it is necessary for us to become much more critical and hands-on in our dealings with Rubi-Ka."
As part of this new initiative, Omni-Pol's new use of force policy allows officers to freely use force to regain control of situations when it "is deemed as the most viable option" and "needed to suppress or control individuals not responding to warnings, instructions, and conventional methods of direction."
The new initiatives set forth by Omni-Pol, including the revised use of force policies, went into effect today at midnight.
