Fit For Duty Scheme

The Fit For Duty Scheme has been created by the Leicestershire Police Federation to support working members returning to good health. The scheme will assist officers who are recently injured on duty and require physiotherapy treatment quickly in order to get back to work and minimise sick leave or to return to full operational duties if they are currently restricted due to the injury. 

To qualify for the Fit For Duty Scheme, you must comply with the following criteria:

• Must be a subscribing member to the Leicestershire Police Federation
• Injured whilst on duty 
• Recorded as an injury on duty on Force systems
• Either off sick or on recuperative duties
• If you are in a private health insurance scheme, please claim under that policy in the first instance

If you think this scheme is applicable to you, please contact the Federation Office in the first instance on 0116 218 3131 or alternatively you can email in at leics@polfed.org. Please provide a brief description of your injury and also a summary of how you acquired it.
