Fast, Practical Pre-Employment Medicals for Melbourne Employers

Hiring someone new?

A pre-employment medical helps you understand whether a candidate is fit to safely perform the inherent requirements of the role - before they start work.

At Persona Health, we provide fast, professional pre-employment medicals for employers across Melbourne and Victoria, with clinic access in Craigieburn, Cairnlea, and through our wider affiliated clinic network.

Whether you are hiring one employee or managing bulk recruitment, we make the process simple, efficient, and easy to manage.

What is a Pre-Employment Medical?

Pre-employment medicals that are fair, fast, and fit for the role.

A pre-employment medical is a health assessment designed to determine whether a candidate can safely perform the duties required for a specific job.

It is not about excluding people from work. It is about helping employers make informed decisions, manage risk, and support safe placement.

Depending on the role, a pre-employment medical may assess:

• General health and medical history
• Height, weight, blood pressure and basic observations
• Vision
• Musculoskeletal function
• Functional capacity
• Drug and alcohol screening
• Audiometry
• Spirometry
• Respirator fit testing
• Health surveillance requirements
• Role-specific physical demands

Assessments can be tailored to suit the duties of the position, workplace risks, and industry requirements.
