Certainly within the RN Fleet legal advisers are in the throws of rewriting the guidance to ensure that the fitness test is complied with and that common disciplinary action is taken fleet wide.

At first glance it appears that failure to achieve the fitness test will result in compulsory attendance at remedial training. The remedial package apparently is excellent value however the big prob is people chose not to attend. This is likely to lead to being charged with absent fm place of duty and possibly wilful disobedience as the requirement to attend will be laid down as an order.

See the audit trail being built. Repeated failure/attendance at remedial training will allow ultimately for discharge to be brought about one way or another.

Personally - if you're in the military you should be fit. For an organisation that has a very limited EO policy on diasabled people we owe it to ourselves to be professional and uphold the standards req'd. Afterall - its not difficult.
