Pre-employment Medical Assessments

Pre-employment medical assessments are an important tool used to screen individuals for risk factors that may increase their medical and functional risk to perform a job safely and effectively in the short and long term.

Our pre-employment assessments are tailored to your business needs and requirements. We incorporate a risk based, role specific approach to each individual and role and use a battery of musculoskeletal, functional, medical, role specific and cardiovascular tests to determine exposure risk.

Cassia Medical delivers comprehensive and detailed pre-employment medical examinations, pre-placement and periodic medical assessments, that relate to your business and your exposure risk.

Our Medical and Allied Health staff have worked with and for Industry for many years and bring a comprehensive understanding of risk into each assessment. Our professionals are licensed evaluators and use an industry leading system to objectively measure, determine and report on the medical and functional abilities of an individual in both the home and work environment.
