Pre-Employment Medicals and Tests

• Standard Pre-Employment Medical

This takes the form of a medical questionnaire and a physical examination.  The physical examination includes a sight test (including colour blindness), cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal and ENT examinations and a general musculoskeletal examination.  

KRMC can provide paperwork for the Pre-Employment Medical.

• Functional Physical Assessment

Our Functional Physical Assessment focuses on the cause of most workers’ compensation claims: musculoskeletal injuries.  These injuries can arise because an employee is not physically suited to the role - typically a manual handling role - for which he/she has been employed. 

KRMC can provide paperwork for the Functional Physical Assessment.
