ABSTRACT
This chapter reviews the issues surrounding the medical and psychological standards of pre-employment law enforcement screening. A review of the impact of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 19901 (ADA) and related laws will address medical evaluations, drug testing, and psychological evaluation processes. This chapter refers to the discussions of physical agility testing processes and timelines for the speciœc components, as well as the timeline for the issuance of the Conditional Offer of Employment (COE) already addressed in Chapter 2. In this chapter, the primary concern is the requirements and regulatory practices of these speciœc components of the pre-employment screening process.
