What to expect at a pre-employment medical
The doctors and nurses at Salisbury Medical Centre have years of experience at providing pre-employment health checks. Many companies require a medical as part of the onboarding process. If you haven't had a medical before, this is a guide on what you can expect.
Depending on your line of work, there will be different requirements to being "work place fit". You can anticipate the doctor checking:
- Your height, weight, temperature and blood pressure
- Questions will be general and lifestyle related
- Your hearing & vision will be tested
- ECG to check heart function
- Lung Function test (spirometry)
- A physical examination will be undertaken
- You may be required to take an instant drug and alcohol test, particularly if you operate machinery. Positive results will be reviewed by a laboratory
