Are you required to have a physical exam for a new job or workplace role?
Many employers ask for an occupational health physical before starting a role — especially where safety, physical demands, or regulatory compliance are involved. The examination confirms you are fit for the duties required.
Do you need a fitness‑to‑work assessment for a physically demanding role?
Roles involving lifting, manual handling, standing, or prolonged activity may require an assessment of cardiovascular, musculoskeletal and functional fitness to ensure you can safely carry out the duties.
Has your employer asked for medical clearance after illness or injury?
If you’ve been off work due to health reasons, an occupational physical exam can assess whether you’re safe to return, the level of duties you can perform, and whether reasonable adjustments are needed.
Do you have ongoing aches, pains or mobility issues that affect your work?
Conditions such as back pain, joint stiffness, or reduced mobility can impact job performance and safety. The physical exam evaluates functional ability and offers practical recommendations or referrals where appropriate.
Are you concerned about how your health impacts your work performance?
Ongoing symptoms like breathlessness, fatigue, dizziness or muscle weakness may affect job tasks. A structured physical assessment helps identify limitations and supports safe work planning.
Do you need documentation for HR, insurers or occupational safety compliance?
Occupational physicals often include a written report or fitness certificate that employers, insurers or regulatory bodies require — confirming your health status and capacity to work safely.
