Every day your body armor is expected to take care of you, and it will, but first you need to take care of it. Body armor requires regular care to keep it fresh and to prevent damage to the plates. You don’t want it broken, and you don’t want to smell like a sweaty beast. Your body armor should receive regular attention. At the very least you should wash bullet proof vests once a week like you would with any of your other duty equipment. If you have the time, it can be washed more often but most work schedules will not allow for that.
