There have been many big topics over the last few years in law enforcement. One of those topics has been being physical fit for duty. If there is a physical test to become officer, why is there not an annual test to maintain your fitness?
Many people and senior offices say it is not fair to those who have been on the force for and extended period of time, there has never been a physical fitness test before so why know? What will happen to those who can pass the test? Retaining officers is difficult and retaining good officers is more difficult. Many of the senior officers who more then likely who can not pass the test have a wealth of knowledge to offer the younger officers, but is it fair to hold the younger officers to a higher standard
