A UK review said that all police officers should be made to take an annual fitness test, with a pay cut for those who repeatedly fail, the Daily Telegraph reported.

In the Metropolitan Police department, more than half of male officers are overweight, one fifth are obese and one in 100 morbidly obese.

Tom Winsor, who has carried out the widest-ranging review of police pay and conditions in over 30 years, said that who fail the test three times should be subjected to disciplinary procedures and a pay cut. (点击《每日电讯报》查看原文)

英国肥胖警察或被降薪

       据英国《每日电讯报》报道,报告指出,英国警察需每年接受体能测试,若反复不达标,则应减薪。

       该国都市男警员中,超重者过半数,20%极为肥胖,另有1%为致病性肥胖。

       汤姆·温莎历时30余年,对警员薪酬及生活状况进行了广泛调查,他表示,如果三次不达标,警员就应受罚降薪。
