Body Armor

Yes, my agency requires you to wear your body armor whenever you are working. I think all LEO's should wear their vest when they are on duty.
 
My current department does not mandate body armor. The reason for that is budget. My partner and I both wear one. Just has to come out of own pocket. Well worth it!
 
I always wear one. If it isn't in the budget, there are grants and programs that will pay for the vests. Be safe out there.
