POST Physical Readiness Standards
Nevada
Peace Officers are called upon to perform important, often critical, job
functions where their physiological capabilities and readiness directly relate
to their effectiveness, their safety, and the safety of co-workers and
citizens. The POST Physical Readiness Standards are in place to ensure that the
State of Nevada provides for the development and maintenance of a fit and
capable work force in order to achieve the primary objective of providing
reasonable assurance of safe and effective job performance. For
certification, all Nevada peace officers must pass the state physical readiness
examination for the appropriate category of peace officer as described in NAC
289.205 during the officer's basic training course. In
an effort to assist agencies for the POST Physical Readiness Test, the
following documents are provided for your convenience.
