Employment medicals

  • A doctor every time
  • Today, every day.

What does the appointment involve?

The doctor assesses you for anything that could cause sudden incapacity in a safety-critical role, including your vision, hearing, blood pressure, heart and circulation, and nervous system. Where your employer sets specific standards, the assessment is done against those.

Is there anything else I should know?

Bring your employer's specific standards or form if they have provided one, as safety-critical requirements vary by industry.
