Peace Officer/Dispatcher Background Investigation Forms

Backgrounds are among the most important investigations a law enforcement agency will ever conduct. The way in which a background investigation is conducted can make the difference between hiring an individual who will truly protect and serve versus someone who may cause harm to oneself, the agency, and society. 

Background investigations are also among the most challenging investigations to conduct. They must be comprehensive if they are to lead to informed hiring decisions. Past misconduct and other signs of unsuitability must be uncovered so that dangerous or otherwise unfit candidates are screened out. At the same time, inquiries into past performance must stay within the tight parameters of fair employment practices. Furthermore, the areas investigated and the evaluation of the resulting information must be treated consistently across all candidates.

To assist departments with background investigations, OMAG has forms available which can be utilized to conduct thorough background investigations for Police Officers/Dispatchers.  Forms can be located and downloaded from the OMAG website at https://www.omag.org/peace-offer-background-forms.   The forms can be downloaded in Microsoft Word format or fillable PDF format. The forms can be edited to put your department’s name at the top of each form.  Just copy the link to your browser and it will take you directly to the background investigation forms listed below.
