CITY OF SAN BERM RDINO - REQUEST f)R COUNCIL ACTION
STAFF REPORT
Mir A
The City of San Bernardino entered into a contractual agreement with William S.
Lane, DBA Internal Control who provides pre-employment polygraph testing on law
enforcement trainees, lateral police officer, pre-service applicants and reserve
police officer applicants.
The agreement commenced July 1 , 1994, and terminates June 30, 1995.
William S. Lane has adhered to all terms of the agreement and the level and
quality of service has been satisfactory.
Pre-employment polygraph examinations have proved cost effective by detecting
problems within an individual 's background in the initial stages of the background
investigation rather than at the end of the background process or even after
employment.
The result of the polygraph examinations are used as an investigative tool in the
pre-employment background process. The pre-employment examination can explore the
truth or veracity of the perspective police problems, and prior employment
history.
It is our desire to continue using the polygraph examination as part of the
selection process.
