Pre-Employments & Health Assessments
Pre-Employment Health Assessments
At Bodycare Workplace Solutions, we believe that building a great team starts with finding the right people for your business and that this starts with a great recruitment and pre-employment process.
In an environment where workers or candidates, are required to work remotely, drive commercially, interact with the public, perform manual tasks or complete a number of other physical and mental demands, it is critical to ensure that each worker can safely perform the inherent requirements of their role throughout their employment.
Our Pre-Employment Assessments
Our pre-employment assessments provide our clients with a clear snapshot of a candidate’s overall health and can inform the ongoing management of pre-existing health concerns after the recruitment process is complete.
Bodycare ensures that all its pre-employment health assessments and legislated medical checks contain a robust functional assessment coupled with a series of key medical and clinical tests. Our experienced occupational health professionals can quickly identify potential issues, track health parameters (such as hearing and respiratory function), and provide robust and professional recommendations.
Whether it is for an in-house health screening tool or tailored pre-employment assessments completed (at any one of our national clinics), Bodycare can cater to your business’s pre-employment screening needs.
Your First Layer Of Defence
At Bodycare, we adopt the same approach used by professional sporting clubs when they recruit new players. We test and assess candidates by performing pre-employment assessments (both voluntary and legislated) to ensure that employers are aware of any health risks that are potentially being brought into your business.
For more than two decades, Bodycare has proven pre-employment assessments to be an ideal first layer of defence from the impact of health risks that new employees may introduce to organisations, be it musculoskeletal, pre-existing conditions, recent injuries, or other medical conditions.

When requesting a pre employment medical or health assessment, it’s simple. All you need to do is log into the Bodycare Dashboard and enter some basic information, from there we will take care of the rest. Once the information is received, our team will contact the candidate or employee and appropriate clinic to arrange the appointment booking and you will be notified once everything has been arranged.

One of the key features of our platform, is the ability to track assessment progress at the click of a button. Relevant managers have the ability to log into our dashboard and monitor assessment progress, this reduces the amount of back and forth that takes place when key stakeholders are looking for progress updates on a given candidate.
Bodycare’s booking team regularly provide updates through the dashboard e.g. if they are unable to contact a new candidate to confirm their availability, this information is recorded in the notes section of each booking/assessment.
Other features of the tracking system include
- The ability to monitor when online questionnaires have been sent and complete
- The ability to monitor when appointments have been booked- including ability to view appointment details
- The ability to track when appointments have been missed
-
At the conclusion of all assessments completed by Bodycare, a report is generated within hours of the assessment taking place. This information is made available to relevant stakeholders within the organisation via email and can also be accessed via the online dashboard.

Health surveillance is a process where employee health is regularly monitored to ensure that their working environment is not negatively affecting their overall health. Employee health is assessed over time, and, if necessary, interventions are implemented to minimise exposure to health risks, such as requiring mandatory hearing protection. Health surveillance checks may be legally required for employees exposed to noise, vibration, fumes, dust, chemicals, and other hazardous substances. The frequency of health surveillance activities varies by industry, company, and state-specific legislation.
At Bodycare, we offer flexible health surveillance services that can be conducted either onsite or offsite through our national clinical network, depending on your organisation’s needs. Our tailored approach ensures that your workforce is regularly monitored and protected, in compliance with health and safety regulations. Click here to learn more. -
Legislated medicals are specific medical assessments required by law for certain high-risk jobs, such as those in aviation, mining, or transportation. These assessments are mandated by industry regulations to ensure that employees meet health standards necessary for the safety of both the individual and others in the workplace. Legislated medicals may include tests for respiratory health, hearing, vision, and other specific health criteria, depending on the nature of the job.
At Bodycare, our legislated medicals are designed to ensure that the health of your employees is constantly monitored and always the first priority. Click here to learn more. -
