Although this type of pre-employment physical exam is highly important and definitely needed it is only the start. Even though the employer is clearing the employee from medical clinical elements, diseases or issues, unfortunately with the doctor's exam only, the results are mainly subjective (pass/fail) and based on the option of the doctor, physician's assistant or nurse which can lack consistence depending on who is performing the exam that day. Nor, does the doctor's exam document the capability of the employee to perform specific movements, postures or lifting capabilities required by the job. It lacks validation on if the employee is physically able to perfrom the job safely such as the pre-employment testing below. Click each link below to learn more.
