Effective July 1, 2006, the "Fitness For Life" bonus of 3% went into effect. In order to receive the bonus for the first year, you must do two things: 1) Take the Fitness For Life medical exam off duty during your birth month, and 2) complete 12 hours of on-duty continuing education (currently being developed) during the fiscal year.  You will lose the bonus for one year if you do not meet these two requirements.

July and August birthday personnel who have not already done so should schedule their exams immediately and then fax their completed compliance form to Health Programs in order to keep the bonus. 

Additional information on the the Department's Fitness for Life program, including future requirements, is available on the Department's Intranet site, as well as on the "Fit For Life" site under Main Menu on the left side of this website. 

If you have any questions, or difficulty scheduling your medical exam, please contact Heatlh Programs at 323-881-3037. 

PLEASE NOTE:  The original flyer that was sent out had the last two numbers of the telephone number transposed.  If you tried to call the "old" number, you couldn't get through.  The Department has since sent out an EA ammending the telephone number to reflect the correct number above.
