Pre-Employment Screening
Did you know that approximately 65% of all manual handling injuries occur with workers whom have commenced their new employment with a pre-existing injury or pre-disposition to sustaining an injury?
The solution to mitigating this avoidable risk is to identify these at-risk workers through implementation of an effective pre-employment screening program specific to the individual role requirements within your business.
Aspects of injury risk
Kairros’ success in reducing injury rates of its clients, is due to its focus on three major aspects of injury risk:
Pre-existing injury
- Accurate history obtained from applicant
- Musculoskeletal assessment of all major joints, spine including posture analysis, range of movement and specific tests for a variety of disorders, with specific focus on key injury areas
- Cardiovascular fitness testing as appropriate to employment role specification
Risk of future injury
- Posture analysis
- Range of movement
- Standardised, evidence-based assessment of risk of injury for targeted injury types
