Pre-Employment Functional Assessments at Therapy Hub: What We Offer
At Therapy Hub, your potential employees are assessed by our team of highly qualified and experienced Physiotherapists. Our physiotherapists are experts in human movement, musculoskeletal health, and functional capacity, ensuring a thorough and relevant evaluation for your business needs.
Pre-Employment Functional Assessments and Services
-
We don't believe in one-size-fits-all. Our expert physiotherapists work with you to understand the specific physical demands of each role within your organisation. This includes detailed analysis of required tasks like lifting, carrying, pushing, pulling, bending, reaching, and sustained postures.
-
Each candidate undergoes a comprehensive assessment conducted by one of our qualified physiotherapists. This includes:
Review of medical history and any pre-existing conditions.
Detailed musculoskeletal examination (range of motion, strength, flexibility).
Observation and assessment of movement quality for job-relevant tasks.
Objective measurement of functional capacities (e.g., safe lifting limits, endurance).
-
Our assessments help to identify any pre-existing physical limitations or injury risks a candidate may have. This allows you to make informed hiring decisions and consider any necessary workplace modifications or reasonable adjustments before employment even begins.
-
The detailed report we provide creates a clear baseline of the employee's physical capacity at the time of hiring. This is invaluable for future reference, particularly if a workers' compensation claim arises, as it helps differentiate between pre-existing conditions and work-related incidents.
-
By ensuring a good physical match between the worker and the job, our assessments contribute directly to a reduction in workplace injuries, ultimately leading to fewer lost workdays and decreased workers' compensation costs.
-
We understand the pace of recruitment. That's why we pride ourselves on delivering clear, concise, and actionable reports quickly, often within 24 hours, so you can proceed with your hiring decisions efficiently.
