Post-Offer / Pre-Employment Comprehensive Test

This is the most commonly used test by our clients. It is a 1.5 to 2-hour test. A complete face-to-face medical history is taken, a comprehensive musculoskeletal physical is completed and the job-specific/ essential functions are tested. This comprehensive process objectively quantifies pre-existing conditions and cumulative traumas to determine their effect upon "significant and impending" risk as it relates to the position in question and determines if the candidate is capable of performing the essential job functions. Drug Screen, TB testing and lumbar x-rays are also available as part of this comprehensive test for additional fees.

This test is used to classify employees according to risk and then used to implement prevention strategies to lower susceptibility to injury. Work conditioning, accommodations, and other options are made available to the employer based upon results.

This test can be administered as part of either the Post-Offer/Pre-Employment Comprehensive Test or the Post-Employment/Fit For Duty Test. We also offer a comprehensive upper quadrant/carpal tunnel evaluation. It is used to determine capability as it relates to job function.
