Peace officers: leave of absence.

Existing law establishes the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training in the Department of Justice and requires the commission to establish minimum standards regarding the recruitment of peace officers. Existing law requires the commission to develop guidelines and implement courses of instruction regarding racial profiling, domestic violence, hate crimes, vehicle pursuits, and human trafficking, among others. This bill would require the commission to create a workgroup consisting of appropriate stakeholders to study the appropriate leave of absence policies for a peace officer after a traumatic event has occurred in the course of the peace officer's duties.
