Texas HB4796 mandates local law enforcement agencies to adopt physical fitness standards and conduct annual evaluations for peace officers.
Texas HB4796 requires each law enforcement agency of a political subdivision to adopt physical fitness standards for peace officers that are at least as stringent as those of the Department of Public Safety. These agencies must also annually evaluate the physical fitness of each peace officer based on the adopted standards. If an officer fails to meet the standards, the agency must require the officer to participate in a physical fitness program until they meet the standard.
