General Employment Physical Exams

We’ll help ensure you and your employees are ready to get the job done. Our team is prepared to administer exams prior to employment, during employment, post-accident and even yearly to keep your workforce safe, well and compliant.

Pre-employment

We will help determine whether applicants are medically and physically able to perform their potential job duties. Depending on the position's requirements and employer, our trained medical staff will create an exam that caters to the job's unique duties.

Fit for duty

If an employer has specific concerns about an employee’s ability to perform their job duties safely and efficiently, we will work with the employee’s physician to conduct an examination tailored to fit the requirements of the job.

Return to work

A return to work evaluation is performed to ensure that an employee can safely return to work and to perform his or her job duties following an injury or illness. We will collaborate with employers to develop plans for modified duty or additional support, as needed.

Annual

We offer annual physicals to help employers determine if their employees can continue to perform their duties safely and effectively. This may include a review of the employee’s past medical history and current medications.

Job-Specific Exams

Some jobs call for specific needs and requirements. We’re prepared to evaluate employees to determine if they’re ready for work based on what lies ahead.
