Pre-employment Medicals

Walton Bridge Medical Centre Waterworks Road runs a comprehensive health service that includes pre-employment medicals, injury management and managed rehabilitation, as well as back to work assessments for staff.

What does a pre-employment medical include?

Pre-employment medical examinations will generally include the following tests or assessments:

• Cardiovascular, central nervous system, respiratory and musculoskeletal examinations
• Body mass index (BMI)
• Urine analysis to diagnose any diabetic, kidney or bladder disorders
• Vision assessment including colour blindness

In addition to the above standard inclusions, medical professionals conducting pre-employment medicals will often collect basic patient data. This includes height, weight, blood pressure and a general assessment of medical history to identify any risks to the patient’s health or their ability to perform in the specified job.

In addition to the standard inclusions in a pre-employment medical, many of our clients choose to include additional tests and assessments in their pre-employment medical procedures. These tests are often conducted due to specific legal requirements or because the role that employees are being screened for involves tasks that need a certain level of capability to perform. Some of the additional options that can be included during a pre-employment medical exam include:

• Drug and Alcohol
• Audiometry
• Spirometry
• Electrocardiogram (ECG)
• Vaccinations
• Pathology & X-ray
