    SAPS invites ex-police officers to come back on board

    The South African Police Service (SAPS) is inviting former members of the service to apply for re-enlistment.

    Applications are open to a range of former policemen across the spectrum from constables to senior superintendents.

    The South African Police Service (SAPS) is inviting former members of the service to apply for re-enlistment.

    Applications are open to a range of former policemen across the spectrum from constables to senior superintendents.

    It appears that the SAPS is trying to find a quick fix to the skills shortage within the service just before the World Cup soccer tournament to ensure the safety of all participants and visitors.

    The requirements for re-enlistment include: basic police training; a Grade 12 or higher qualification; a drivers licence; no criminal record and applicants must be mentally, medically and physically fit.

    These requirements are precisely what one would have expected under the circumstances, but there are other requirements that might surprise some recruits.

    For example no one over fifty years old need apply and the same goes for anyone who might have been involved in any mercenary activity. Newly recruited former members of SAPS must also be willing to undergo a refresher course.

    The government notice also states that its advertisement to re-enlist former members of SAPS has no closing date. In other words this process is expected to go on for quite some time.

    For more information, go to the SAPS website at this address: http:// www.saps.gov.za/careers/re_enlistment.htm
