The Haryana Staff Selection Commission (HSSC) released the Physical Measurement Test (PMT) schedule and admit card on 4 July 2026 for the Jail Warder and Assistant Superintendent of Jail recruitment (Advertisement 06/2026), and the physical test is being conducted from 6 to 11 July 2026 in roll-number-wise batches. Only candidates who qualified the Haryana CET (Group-C) under Advertisement 01/2025 were shortlisted for this stage. If your batch falls in this window, download your admit card, confirm your reporting time and centre, and plan to reach early — the physical test is a screening gate you must clear to stay in the recruitment.
PMT schedule and how to download the admit card
- Open the official HSSC portal hssc.gov.in (link in the Important Links section below).
- Click the Jail Warder / Assistant Superintendent PMT Admit Card link (Advt 06/2026).
- Log in with your registration number and date of birth (or password).
- Check your PMT date, batch reporting time and venue — the test runs in batches from about 6:30 AM, so your slot may be early.
- Download and print the admit card and carry it on your test day.
Reporting and no-entry cut-off times are strict; candidates reporting after the gate closes are not allowed in, so reach the venue well before your slot.
Physical standards (as reported — confirm on the official notice)
The Physical Measurement Test checks height and, for male candidates, chest. The figures reported for this recruitment are below. Treat these as indicative and confirm the exact standards on the official Advertisement 06/2026 notice, which is the only authoritative source:

| Male — Reserved | 168 cm | 81–85 cm |
| Female — General | 158 cm | Not applicable |
| Female — Reserved | 156 cm | Not applicable |
Any running or endurance test (PET) and its exact distance and timing are as specified in the official notice — we are not stating unverified race figures here. Check Advertisement 06/2026 for the confirmed physical events and standards before your test.
What to carry and the PMT-day process
- Printed PMT admit card for Advt 06/2026.
- Original photo identity proof and photocopies (as per your admit card instructions).

Selection process — where the physical test sits
For this recruitment the physical test is an early screening gate, not a final stage. The order is: Haryana CET (Group-C) shortlisting (already done, Advt 01/2025) → Physical Measurement Test (PMT) → Physical Screening / endurance Test (PST) → Written Examination → Document Verification → Medical Examination. So clearing the PMT keeps you in contention, and the written exam that follows is what shapes the merit. Confirm the exact stage sequence for your post in the official notice.

HSSC Jail Warder PMT 2026 — Physical Test Schedule (6 to 11 July), Standards and Admit Card — Analysis & Trends
A note for candidates on the physical day.
The measurement recorded at the centre is final, so give yourself the best chance on the day rather than arguing later. Height and chest are taken on calibrated equipment: stand fully erect for the height reading, and for the chest measurement breathe normally and then take a full, genuine expansion — a rushed or slouched posture can cost you the millimetres that matter at the borderline. Because the exact standards and any running test are confirmed only in the official Advertisement 06/2026 notice, verify them there and, if a PET is listed, keep your general fitness up rather than relying on unofficial race figures floating online. Two practical points: carry every original certificate your admit card lists, since document checks often happen alongside the physical stage; and treat this as a gate, not the finish — clearing the PMT simply moves you toward the written examination, which is where the real merit is decided.
