Post-offer Pre-Employment Examinations

Ensure the safety and readiness of your workforce with the Pre-Employment Examinations at our occupational medicine clinic. These examinations can be designed to assess the health and safety of your employees, ensuring they are fit for their unique workplace environment.

Our pre-employment examinations may include the following:

• Physical Exams: Thorough evaluations to confirm that employees can meet the physical demands of their job.
• Medical History Review: Detailed assessments of medical history to identify any potential health risks.
• Blood Tests: Comprehensive blood work to detect any underlying health issues.
• Vision and Hearing Tests: Critical assessments to ensure sensory capabilities are within safe operational standards.
• Fitness for Duty Tests: Customized evaluations to determine if candidates can perform essential tasks of their job.
• Mental Health Assessments: Psychological evaluations to ensure candidates can handle the stress and isolation often associated with their work environment.

Periodic Surveillance Exams

Periodic examinations monitor the health and safety of your employees, incorporating components of the post-offer pre-employment exams as appropriate to specific needs. These exams are structured to meet industry-specific requirements, ensuring compliance and optimal health management.

Fit for Duty & Return to Work Evaluations

A fit-for-duty evaluation determines if the employee is physically and psychologically able to perform the essential job functions as outlined in their job descriptions. This exam is often reserved for labor-intensive job positions and can be customized according to the employee’s unique circumstances. When a fit-for-duty exam is performed on employees who are completing treatment after an illness or injury, the evaluation is called a “return-to-work exam.” Employers rely on return-to-work exams to make sure their employees can safely return to work without risking re-injury.
