By carrying out pre-employment health assessments on prospective staff, your business is ensuring the minimisation of training and recruitment costs as you are establishing whether a prospective employee is suitable for your workplace.  This helps to prevent workplace harm caused by injury or accidents which, in turn, minimises lost work time. 

Ruling out issues prior to employment can save you considerable productivity and financial losses down the track should an individual become injured in a position they were not physically or psychologically suitable to undertake. The assessment involves obtaining the candidates health and injury history and undertaking health screening tests as required by your specific industry and workplace risks. Pre-employment health assessment results also serve as baseline medical data to compare with your required annual medical health data.

Our pre-employment health assessments:

• Establish if a prospective worker is suitable for your workplace
• Establish if there are levels of impairment causing substances in the applicants body through drug & alcohol screening
• Record all existing health & injury history, protecting your workplace from future liability
• Establish a health baseline for periodic (annual) health monitoring data to be compared with for legal compliance
• Are tailored to your specific business requirements
• Ensure you meet your obligations for baseline health monitoring

The types of pre-employment health tests your workers will require depends on your business specific health risks. A comprehensive health risk assessment undertaken by one of our expert health and safety consultants is recommended to ensure all your health risks are identified.
