摘要

加拿大警察部门依靠其应急反应小组(ERT)应对各种服务请求,要求应急反应小组成员达到与应急反应小组职责中对体能要求较高的部分相一致的体能标准。在本文中,我们探讨了加拿大战术小组的不同体能测试内容,以更好地了解应急反应小组的体能测试标准。为此,我们调查了加拿大突发事件指挥官协会成员如何回应与应急反应小组成员体能测试相关的封闭式和开放式调查项目、未通过应急反应小组体能测试标准的后果,以及如何看待体能标准对应急反应小组成员留任和招募造成的障碍。我们将讨论的中心放在需要一支有体能的警察队伍来确保安全、降低风险和加强公共安全上,并提出了与体能测试标准相关的政策变化的潜在途径。

Understanding the physical fitness standard, recruitment, and retention of Canadian Emergency Response Teams
Canadian police services rely on their Emergency Response Teams (ERT) to respond to diverse calls for service, requiring ERT members to meet physical fitness standards aligned with the physically demanding components of ERT responsibilities. In the current article, we explore the different physical testing components of Canadian tactical teams to better understand the physical testing standards for ERT. We do this by investigating how members of the Association of Canadian Critical Incident Commanders respond to closed and open-ended survey items related to fitness testing for ERT members, consequences of not passing ERT physical testing standards, and how fitness standards are perceived as creating barriers to member retention and recruitment to ERT. We center our discussion on the need for a physically capable police service to ensure security, reduce risk, and enhance public safety and suggest potential avenues for policy changes tied to physical testing standards as ways forward.
