Pre-Employment Medicals
Customised
Pre-Employment Medical Assessments Specific to Your Job Roles
A pre-employment medical examination is a workforce risk management tool designed to evaluate whether a candidate has the mental and physical capacity to perform a role safely. The assessment outcomes allow you to reduce risk of injury, create a safe work environment, and make informed hiring decisions that will benefit your business.
