Show Notes
Cleveland police officers can work up to sixteen hours in a day, leading to massive overtime. One officer earned $176,000 in 2025 alone. The department is short-staffed, driving the need for overtime. City council members express concerns about officer fatigue, while the police chief emphasizes the voluntary nature of the work. Twelve-hour shifts are introduced to improve work-life balance, but demands from various incidents keep overtime necessary. Many officers value the flexibility.
