What is the Minimum Age to Become a Police Officer?
Many different countries have a minimum age to become a police officer, and that age can depend upon the agency that is hiring and the location of the agency. Some peace officer organizations also impose a maximum hiring age, but this can be challenged if the person is physically fit and he/she has held other civil service or government jobs. For instance, people who were formerly in a country’s military service may be able to override maximum age requirements.
