In this episode, OMAG Law Enforcement Specialist Kevin Katz chats with Mike Antu and John Massey from Lexipol, along with OMAG Associate General Counsel Ambre Gooch. They discuss Lexipol policies and Daily Training Bulletins (DTBs), which are valuable resources OMAG offers to its members at no cost. Lexipol’s policies are up-to-date with both constitutional and state laws, and they’re designed to reduce liability for law enforcement, improve department operations, and strengthen community relationships.

With the rise in law enforcement claims and costs, OMAG members’ use or non-use of Lexipol policies and DTBs could impact their premiums, deductibles, or participation in OMAG’s General Liability Plan in the future.

That’s why OMAG has pinpointed certain Lexipol policies that we expect our members to incorporate into their police manuals. By doing so, departments ensure they’re following constitutional guidelines, and their officers are regularly trained on those policies, helping to reduce liability.
