All employees, part time and full time, hired after January 1, 1986, will be required to participate in the Physical Maintenance Testing procedure unless the law mandates that an employee be exempt either from testing or from having all the requirements with respect to physical qualifications applied to him/her. Employees who do not pass the test shall be subject to re-testing every sixty (60) days; if they haven’t passed after twelve (12) months of original testing, the employee will be subject to a ten (10)-day unpaid suspension. If they still haven’t passed after twenty- four (24) months the employee shall be subject to discharge. Physical Maintenance Testing shall be established by the Employer based on the standard employed at the time the employee was hired. Employees must meet sixty (60%) percent of each test to be considered having passed the test. Those employees passing the Physical Maintenance Test at a higher level will be compensated according to the following: Seventy (70%) percent – (79%) percent $500.00 Eighty (80%) percent – (89%) percent $750.00 Ninety (90%) percent – One Hundred (100%) percent $1,000.00 After three (3) consecutive years of passing the physical maintenance test with an average score of eighty (80%) percent each year, the employee will be provided a physical performance bonus of $300.00 in addition to their compensation for passing the current year’s physical maintenance test. After receiving the physical performance bonus, the employee will not be eligible again for three (3) consecutive calendar years of passing the annual physical maintenance test with an average of eighty (80%) percent. For purposes of this agreement, the first year for consideration of the three (3) consecutive years will be the year immediately prior to the signing of the collective bargaining agreement. For the purpose of this Agreement, Appendix 1 in the Physical Maintenance Program Policy, Sheriff Department Policy No. 3.023, will show the standards that each employee must meet.

Physical Maintenance Program. The parties agree to institute a Physical Maintenance Program. Participation in this Program will be on a voluntary basis and the testing will occur annually. The test and the standards utilized will be those developed by the Institute for Aerobics Research in Dallas, Texas except as provided herein. It will consist of five (5) parts: either a one (1) mile walk or one and one-half (1.5) mile run, sit and reach, one (1) minute sit-up-number, one (1) repetition maximum bench press and one (1) repetition maximum leg press. The standards for the one (1) mile walk will be those developed by Med-Tox for the County’s Physical Abilities Test and the standards for the one and one-half (1.5) mile run will be the Single Standard General Population rather than those based upon age and sex. Those employees who choose to participate in the annual testing of the Physical Maintenance Program and who achieve an average percentile score of 70 or above shall be entitled to an additional incentive pay of three percent (3%) until the annual retesting. In order to receive the additional incentive pay, an employee must achieve an average score of at least seventy percent (70%) with no individual score below the fortieth (40th) percentile. The average percentile score will be determined by using the percentiles, i.e., 40th, 50th, 60th, 70th, 80th, and 90th percentile, rather than the actual score. For example, if an employee scored an eighty-two (82) on one part, the eightieth percentile (80th) would be used for that part for computing the average. (Revised 1-1-98)
