Has Worf ever been allowed to call (or has his recommendation been approved for) "Red Alert"?
I have recently been binge watching Star Trek: The Next Generation. I notice Lieutenant Worf recommends Red Alert quite often. When he does, Captain Picard shuts him down. I don't recall seeing Picard ever taking Worf's Red Alert advice. Commander Riker calls Red Alert with no problem, he doesn't even have to ask Picard. My question is: Has Worf ever been allowed to call Red Alert/ has his recommendation to go to Red Alert ever been approved?

On the Enterprise, Lieutenant Worf wasn't usually in charge. He was outranked by Riker, Data, La Forge and latterly, Troi. As such he wasn't really in a position to call for Red Alert.
Lieutenant Commander Worf called for Red Alert on DS9 when he was in command of the Defiant on at least one occasion though.
WORF: Red alert. Captain Sisko to the Bridge. All hands battle stations.

The Klingon debuted in the premiere episode of TNG, "Encounter at Farpoint", as a bridge officer but he was soon promoted to Security Chief after the death of Tasha Yar (Denise Crosby). Lieutenant Worf remained the U.S.S. Enterprise-D's Security Chief for 6 years and he was promoted to Lt.Where is Worf in Picard?
Worf left DS9 to become the Federation Ambassador to the Klingon Empire, working closely with Chancellor Martok.Star Trek: Red Alert!
