What Is an Employment Physical?
An employment physical is a medical examination performed to evaluate whether an individual can safely perform the essential duties of a specific job. Depending on the position and industry, the examination may be required before employment, after a conditional job offer, when returning to work, or to determine whether an employee remains fit for duty.
Employment physicals help protect both employers and employees by identifying medical conditions that could affect workplace safety or job performance.
Types of Employment Physicals We Provide
Pre-Employment Physicals
Pre-employment physicals evaluate a candidate's overall health and physical ability before beginning work. These examinations help employers determine whether an applicant can safely perform the requirements of the position.
Post-Offer Physicals
Many employers require a physical examination after extending a conditional job offer. These examinations verify that applicants meet the medical requirements of the position while complying with applicable employment regulations.
Fit-for-Duty Evaluations
Fit-for-duty examinations determine whether an employee can safely return to work or continue performing essential job functions following an illness, injury, or medical leave.
What Does an Employment Physical Include?
Every examination is tailored to the position and employer requirements but may include:
- Comprehensive medical history review
- Complete physical examination
- Vision testing
- Hearing testing
- Blood pressure and vital signs

Additional testing can be performed based on industry regulations or specific employer requirements.
