Pre-Employment Screening
Hire with confidence – ensure physical and cognitive fit for the role.
Make Informed, Confident Hiring Decisions
Our Pre-Employment Screening services help employers make informed hiring decisions by evaluating whether candidates are physically and cognitively suited for specific job roles. Conducted by experienced occupational therapists, these screenings reduce hiring risks, prevent future injuries and support long-term workforce success.
What is Pre-Employment Screening?
Pre-Employment Screening involves assessing a candidate’s functional abilities against the essential requirements of the job. This ensures they can safely and effectively perform tasks such as lifting, standing, repetitive motion, or working in challenging environments.
Screenings may include:
- Physical strength and mobility testing
- Cardiovascular and endurance assessments
- Balance, coordination, and flexibility evaluation
- Cognitive ability screening (attention, memory, decision-making)
- Sensory function and reaction time tests
- Simulated job-specific tasks
Each assessment is customized based on a Job Demands Analysis or employer-provided job description.
Who is it For?
- Employers seeking to minimize workplace injuries
- HR teams screening candidates for physically demanding jobs
- Organizations implementing wellness-based hiring practices
- Candidates applying for safety-sensitive or labor-intensive positions
Industries we commonly support include warehousing, logistics, construction, healthcare, emergency services, and manufacturing.
What to Expect
After a referral or direct booking, our team gathers job-specific information to design an appropriate screening protocol. Candidates attend an in-person appointment at our clinic, where we conduct both standardized and job-simulated assessments in a supportive, professional environment.
A report is shared with the employer outlining the candidate’s physical and cognitive compatibility with the role, along with any recommended accommodations.
