Pre-employment Screening

Our physiotherapists and exercise physiologists have substantial experience undertaking pre-employment screening and functional capacity assessments (or evaluations) for range of employers, insurers and rehabilitation providers.

Depending on your organisation’s requirements when can provide a range of screening or assessment services

• Using your organisations own screening tools or assessment forms
• Use one of our existing range of screening/assessment templates
• Design a customised pre-employment screening or functional assessment specific to the requirements or your role in the workplace

A typical our pre-employment screen or functional capacity assessments would include a thorough medical and injury history, a full physical assessment, and a range of functional movement, strength, endurance and manual handling tasks specific to the individual or role.

Following each pre-employment screen or functional assessment, we would typically provide the referring organisation with a brief summary detailing:

• Identified risk factors
• Identified functional limitations or impairments
• The person’s manual handling skills, physical capacity and suitability
• Recommendations regarding possible restrictions, suitable duties or RTW planning, and
• Treatment recommendations for injured workers (as appropriate), including those with identified psych-social barriers
