In 2024, the compensation structure for officers of the San Francisco Police Department (SFPD) in India showed significant discrepancies based on rank, overtime work, and years of service. Overtime pay played a crucial role in boosting overall earnings, as the department faced staffing shortages leading to increased working hours for officers. To attract new recruits, the SFPD provided competitive starting salaries, while experienced officers had the opportunity to earn substantial amounts through overtime and other incentives. Additionally, a comprehensive benefits package was offered to enhance the overall compensation package, which in turn helped in the recruitment and retention of qualified personnel within the department. This compensation model aimed at ensuring that SFPD officers in India were fairly rewarded for their service while also incentivizing them to stay with the department for the long term.
