Pre Employment Screening

 How do you remember successful companies? In most cases, it would be by the way the employees appear. Well-dressed in the best of health, with a smile on their face and a reassurance in their walk. Can you ever visualize an organization where its essential employees are sickly? Besides the looks, they could be bad for the books! Profits and growth of organizations are directly related to employee health, and more so of those at the helm of affairs. All it takes an organization to head south is for the head to not perform for a few months!

That leaves only ONE option for most employers. Pre-employment screening!

In most cases, this takes place after confirmation of employment and before the candidate joins the employment, and includes the following:

– X-raying the chest

– Testing the eyesight

– Audiometric tests to confirm a level of hearing

– Pathology tests

– For those in the food industry, there’s an additional set of tests that include:

– Testing the skin for ailments Testing for typhoid, jaundice and TB

– Gastrointestinal testing

– For those likely to operate vehicles and/ or work on shop-floors, the following tests are considered pertinent

– Tests to check the condition of the heart, heart-beat and pulse

– Tests to check for issues to do with liver, kidneys and blood-sugar (diabetes)

The need for pre-employment screening

o It ensures that jobs that match an employee’s health conditions are granted to the latter. This goes a long way in increasing employee morale, loyalty and also higher productivity. Costs may get lowered as the threat of a sudden demise or conditions worsening are reduced drastically leading to lesser outgoes on account of medication and multiple appointments.
