1) PHYSICAL EXAMS, PREPLACEMENT AND ROUTINE​

Some of the benefits of pre-placement evaluations include:

• Appropriate pairing of the applicant to the occupational requirements of the job.

• Discovery of health condition(s) that may place the safety or health of the applicant or others at risk.

• A basis for determining needs in the area of reasonable accommodation (for example, sensory aids, special work stations, additional devices, relocation of a workstation, and/or special parking).

• A baseline of health status so future measurements can determine whether any workplace exposures have proven detrimental to the employee's health.

• Knowledge of family health problems so counsel (EAP/Employee Assistance Program) can be provided, which can help reduce periods of employee absence, stress, or decreased productivity.

• A basis for relationship with the employee's supervisors regarding potential emergency situations (for example, insulin-dependent diabetes, convulsive disorders).

• Compliance with state or local statutory requirements for certain job categories, such as primary education and health care.

• Measurement of psychological status so proper referral to counseling sources can avert future job-related stress.

It is the employer's business when drug abuse off the job will affect safety on the job. The employer should have a right to be concerned about an employee's substance abuse "at home", or "the night before" if it may adversely impact on his business production and on his and other's workplace safety "the next day".
