What is the primary duty of a Sergeant?

According to the PERA Force Laws, the primary duty of a Sergeant is to assist officers in enforcement activities. Sergeants support Enforcement Officers in carrying out inspections, compliance checks, and other operational tasks, ensuring smooth functioning of Enforcement Stations. They do not preside over hearings, conduct formal inquiries, or register FIRs, as those responsibilities belong to higher officials such as Investigation Officers or Hearing Officers. By assisting in enforcement, Sergeants help maintain order, accountability, and efficiency in the day-to-day operations of the PERA Force, making them a vital part of the enforcement chain. Their role strengthens operational support, ensures adherence to procedures, and contributes to effective implementation of the law.
