Why pre-employment health assessments?

Recruitment processes are designed to assess skills, experience and qualifications. For some roles, employers also need additional information about the health and functional considerations relevant to the work.

A role-specific pre-employment health assessment adds another layer of insight. Rather than relying on a generic health check, employers can use an assessment tailored to the role to understand the considerations that may be relevant to safe and effective performance.

The information can help employers make informed decisions while providing a basis for considering appropriate support or reasonable adjustments where needed.
