Pre-Employment Medicals

Overview

What is a pre-employment medical?

Baseline assessment for suitability and risk managementgg

A pre-employment medical is a baseline assessment of a candidate's health before they begin their role. Performing a baseline assessment prior to a candidate initiating work helps determine the suitability of the candidate to the role and ensures you are completing the appropriate risk management.
