Supreme Court Police process question

Do they really check your body fat percentage and do they have a PT standard down in FLETC? Also, is it true that USSCP are “AT WILL” employees?

Do they really check your body fat percentage and do they have a PT standard down in FLETC? Also, is it true that USSCP are “AT WILL” employees?

Here is what is available online regarding the process.

• Employment is subject to successful completion of a medical exam, which includes rigorous fitness standards. Medical exam consists of blood work, drug screening, height, weight, stress test, EKG, vision, hearing, and body fat.
• Body fat will be measured by skin-fold calipers at the time of medical exam. Males must be 19% or under and females must be 27% or under.

• Successful completion of a Physical Abilities Test (PAT): The PAT will consist of four events, completed as one continuously timed exam. The maximum allowable time (regardless of age or gender) is four minutes and fifteen seconds (4:15). The four events for the Physical Abilities Test (PAT) will be:
  • A Slalom Run between two (2) sets of cones, placed 75 feet apart for an overall distance of 375 feet;
  • Descending and Ascending one (1) flight of steps, completing five (5) down and up series;
  • Dragging a 165 lbs Rescue Dummy a distance of 40 feet;
  • Fifteen (15) single-handed trigger pulls with each hand, while the arm is extended. The timer will stop once the 30th trigger pull is completed.
  Failure to provide correct information, or omitting information, at any point in during your application will be grounds for termination from the hiring process.

I did not find any mention of a 1.5 mile run, but I would assume that it would also be a requirement at FLETC.
