Employee Condition – Fit for Duty
Work Ready also considers current employees and their fitness for duty. Current employees may be assessed in a similar process as applicants or new employees (pre/post offer assessments) when they are applying for new or different positions within the company. This process is reliant on the employer following similar processes for job descriptions, physical demands and applicant testing. (However, baseline medical data may not be collected unless the current employee has difficulty performing one or more of the essential functions safely.)
Additionally, employers may implement programs for assessing current employees fitness for duty based on factors such as job absence, injury, reduced job performance and related items such as the inability to perform their essential job functions safely.
Innovise and your Work Ready providers can assist you in developing your specific strategy and programs.
