If an employee desires to attempt to earn the bonuses, he/she must notify the Chief of Police or his/her designee prior to taking the annual physical fitness test outlined in Paragraph 21 and provide a note from a doctor that it is safe for the employee to attempt to attain the 50th percentile, 60th percentile, 70th percentile or attempt to attain all three categories. The doctor's note must be dated within the year immediately preceding the test. If the Maine Criminal Justice Academy changes the standards (up or down) the standards for the bonus will not be adjusted from the below charts without consent of both the Town and the BPBA. In order to qualify for the bonus, the tests must be performed according to the standards of the Maine Criminal Justice Academy (i.e., proper form). The time for performance is at the annual physical fitness test outlined in Article 21. There is no opportunity to retake an item(s) of the test which did not meet the required percentile to be awarded the bonus.

Physical Fitness Incentive Pay. The Physical Fitness Incentive Award Program is established to promote physical fitness among sworn members. Probationary Officers are not eligible to participate in this program until they have completed their probationary period; they may participate after their probationary status ends. The physical fitness test will be administered by the Training Academy and proctored by at least one qualified Fitness Instructors designated by the Training Academy. The Training Academy will announce the testing dates, times, locations, and registration through email 60 days prior to the scheduled event. Testing will not take place during holidays or weekends. This will give ample time for the participants to prepare before the test. The testing will be offered at least twice each calendar year; the participant may only participate in two testing sessions, but may only qualify test once per calendar year. A participant may test only if they are in full duty status, meaning that they are not on limited duty or non-enforcement status. If for some reason a participant cannot test, once scheduled, the participant must inform the Training Academy; failure to do so will bar that participant from testing that calendar year. The participant may then reschedule for a retest. If for some reason a participant with a disability can test only with or without a reasonable accommodation, the participant should contact the ADAAA Coordinator. The Physical Fitness Incentive Award test will be modeled on other wellness programs for law enforcement officers, including the Illinois Law Enforcement Training and Standards Board Peace Officer Wellness Evaluation Report (POWER) test. The standards of the POWER test are based on members’ sex and age. In the event technological, legal, or professional considerations, as determined by the City, make changes required or desirable to improve these standards or procedures, the City agrees to notify the Associaiton and solicit recommendations prior to instituting changes. Sworn members must pass every test during one testing session and meet the minimum standards listed in the chart below to qualify for the physical fitness incentive award. Results of the test cannot be used for evaluation, promotional purposes, any type of disciplinary action, or for any consideration for any specialized unit. The standards for the test are presented in the chart below: TEST STANDARDS: MALE SWORN MEMBERS Age 00-00 00-00 40-49 50+ 55+ *Sit and Reach 16.0 15.0 13.8 12...
