Why Conduct Pre-Employment Medicals?
What Does the Assessment Include?
How to Prepare for Your Pre-Employment Medical
Getting Started
Pre-employment medical assessments help identify any health issues that may affect a candidate's ability to perform their job safely and effectively. By evaluating a candidate's physical and mental health, employers can mitigate potential risks, reduce workplace injuries, and ensure compliance with relevant health and safety regulations.
Our comprehensive Pre-Employment Medical includes:
Medical History Review - Identifying past and current health conditions.
Physical Examination - Assessing general health and fitness for work.
Spirometry (Lung Function Test) - Checking for early signs of lung disease.
Audiometry (Hearing Test) - Ensuring compliance with workplace safety standards..
Vision Test - Evaluating eyesight, including visual acuity and peripheral vision, to meet driving and industry standards.
Urinalysis - Screening for underlying medical conditions, such as kidney disease and diabetes.
Functional Capacity Assessment (if requested) - Ensuring physical ability for job demands.
To ensure a smooth assessment process, please follow these preparation guidelines:
If you take any medications or puffers, bring the details including name and dose.
If you are treated by a specialist, bring any recent letters or reports from them.
Wear appropriate clothing – Loose-fitting attire and comfortable shoes suitable for squatting and other physical movements.
Avoid stimulants (coffee, energy drinks) on the morning of your appointment, as they can increase blood pressure and cause arrhythmias.
If you use hearing aids, bring them with you.
If you take puffers, contact our office beforehand, as you may need to withhold them before spirometry testing.
Be prepared to provide a urine sample by staying hydrated before the appointment.
