Why is the Pre-Employment Physical Examination Necessary?

Pre-employment physicals make it possible for employers to see how an applicant’s health could potentially influence their employment. The tests given are chosen so that we can examine a patient and their general health and physical abilities.

Some medications can cause drowsiness, which could cause a dangerous problem if operating heavy machinery. This is why we provide various tests for certain medications so we can see the possible effects on the individual and their ability to perform at work.
