Pre-placement screening 

Many organisations approach us to discuss their responsibilities in relation to the Disability Under the Equality Act 2010. 
 
We would advise that by having a comprehensive pre-placement screening programme you should be able to address potential issues and comply with relevant legislation; we strongly advise organisations to utilise this facility. 
 
The Cost of recruitment, according to British business Bank January 2023 averages £300.00 per employee and the cost of pre-placement screening is 1.16% of that cost. 
 

Can you afford not to: 

Establish the personal, physical and psychological capability of the prospective employee to undertake the work offered – ensuring the candidate is suited to the role ? 
Identify health problems that will require on-going advice and/or management ? 
 
Pre-placement health screening will require the completion of a health questionnaire by both the applicant and HR professional. As a result of scrutiny, the occupational health advisor may require further action such as: 
 
Placement Health Interview 
Medical examination by appointed Physician 
Report from a General Practitioner 
Further information efficiently communicated by Human Resources
