Off-Duty Officer Program

This information is intended for organizations or citizens interested in employing off-duty sworn Ashe County deputies for security and traffic control needs. The secondary employment of our off-duty deputies is limited to those jobs that, by their nature, will not detract from the image or operation of the Ashe County Sheriff’s Office.

Off-duty Deputies are generally hired to maintain order, facilitate traffic flow, provide security, and escort heavy equipment or wide load transports.
