Pre-Offer Agility Testing
[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.0.87″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” module_alignment=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]A Pre-Offer Agility Test is used to determine whether a prospective employee has the physical ability to safely perform the position for which he/she is being considered. During this test, the prospective employee does not provide a medical history, but instead only performs physical tasks relevant to the job he/she is applying for. A Pass/Fail is solely determined by the applicant’s ability to meet the essential function requirements.[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.0.87″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” module_alignment=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]
Post-Offer, Pre-Employment Testing
[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.0.85″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” module_alignment=”left”]A Post-Offer, Pre-Employment Test is used to determine whether a prospective employee can safely perform the essential job requirements necessary in completing the position they have been offered. This is the most common Pre-Employment test and it is performed after the employer has made an official offer to the candidate, but before he/she begins employment. The Comprehensive Post-Offer, Pre-Employment Test includes the following components:- a review of the candidates Medical History
- A series of comprehensive medical measurements
- Strength measures
- Dynamic lifting & progressive lifting sequence
- Cardiovascular condition, including Blood Pressure, Heart Rate, Recovery and Risk assessment
- Essential job functions testing demonstrating the capability to safely perform the essential functions of his or her job.
- The information gathered through the post-offer employment testing will document and quantify pre-existing conditions and cumulative traumas, and is invaluable when used as a baseline for comparison should there ever be an injury and/or rehabilitation necessary.

This test may be done in correlation with a Post-offer, Pre-Employment Test, the Fit-for Duty (for injured workers), or independently as its own stand alone test.[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]
