I'm not saying I was never involved in investigation of internals as a TPS, because I certainly was. But officially TPS shouldn't be doing it. Even APS isn't supposed to, with the exception of SR APS who can. TPS is allowed to act as an witness in interviews and that's it. As far as the company is concerned you should be posted at the doors pretty much your entire shift.Yeah it does. TPS doesn't really focus on internals, but we can find/spot an internal, help investigate it, and be present (if necessary) when the case comes to a conclusion. It all just depends on how large the AP team is and what sort of division of labor the team has.
TPS are not tracked or judged by how many internals we work on, but it's definitely a part of the workload.
Not that I agree with it, but it's the truth.
