Medical Examinations

Pre-employment medical exams and inquiries are prohibited unless the employer is inquiring into the ability of an applicant to perform job-related functions.

After a condition of employment has been made, a medical exam may be required if the following three conditions are met.

  1. All employees are required to have an examination regardless of disability.
  2. The information on medical condition is collected and maintained on a separate form in separate medical files and is treated as a confidential file.
  3. The results of examinations are not used to discriminate against an individual with a disability unless such results make the individual not qualified for the job.
