Boyce, Robert W.; And Others
Health Values: The Journal of Health Behavior, Education & Promotion, v16 n4 p22-29 Jul-Aug 1992
A study compared police officers' physical fitness levels with workers' compensation (WC) claims. Officers who collected WC were predominantly female, younger, and lower ranking, with better physical fitness than officers not collecting WC. Officers in the second highest fitness level and older officers with greater cardiovascular fitness had higher WC costs. (SM)
