IMPORTANCE OF HONESTY STATEMENT

The Lee County Sheriff’s Office is seeking applicants who demonstrate certain characteristics. Honesty is the most important characteristic you must demonstrate. It is extremely important that you are completely honest in all of your answers. The importance of honesty as you complete paperwork and during all interviews cannot be overemphasized. Failure to respond to any question truthfully, whether orally or in writing, will result in disqualification. Many applicants have been disqualified for dishonesty. While filling out documents, you are cautioned to take your time, to be thorough, and to be specific in all your answers. If you have any doubt in your mind concerning a particular question or if you are unsure whether to include certain information, the answer is “Yes”; include it.

You may think that something you have done will disqualify you from further consideration; it may or may not. What will certainly disqualify you is lying or distorting the truth.

Applicant's interviews may be recorded.

Applicants should be aware that per Florida Administrative Code 11B-27.0011, titled “Moral Character” that falsifying an employment application may result in the suspension or revocation of your Florida law enforcement certification, thereby disqualifying you from employment as a law enforcement/correctional officer within the state of Florida.

I have read and understand the contents of this paper.

Retiree Definition

You are considered retired if:

1. You have re-ceived any bene-fits under the FRS Pension Plan including DROP (does not include a with-drawal of em-ployee contribu-tions), or

2. You have taken any distribution (including a roll-over) from the FRS Investment Plan, or other state adminis-tered retirement programs offered by state universi-ties (SUSORP), state community colleges (SCCSORP), state govern-ment for senior managers (SMSOAP), or local govern-ments for senior managers.

terminated FRS-covered employment. You may have a one-time 2nd Election to switch FRS retirement plans. Also, alternative retirement programs are available to certain employ-ees. Contact your employer for deadline and other information. 2Positions include OPS, temporary, seasonal, substitute teachers, adjunct professors, part-time, full-time, regularly established, etc. 3Florida law requires a return of all unauthorized Pension Plan benefit payments or Investment Plan distributions received by a member who has violated the FRS termination or

reemployment provisions. Similar provisions apply to unauthorized SUSORP, SCCSORP, or other state-administered plan distributions – contact that plan’s administrator for details. 4 There is one exception to the restrictions on reemployment limitations after retirement. If you are a retired law enforcement officer, you may only be reemployed as a school re-

source officer by an FRS-covered employer during the 7th through 12th months after your retirement date or after your DROP termination date and receive both your salary and re-tirement benefits.
