Pre-Employment Medical Mackay
What Is A Pre-Employment Medical?
A pre-employment medical is a specific medical appointment we make with you before you begin work in a new role or job. Different careers may require pre-employment medicals for any number of reasons, such as if you will be working in a high-risk environment, if you need to travel overseas, or if the Government specifically requires it for your job role.
At
One Stop Medical, we’re highly qualified in carrying out pre-employment medicals for a wide range of companies and individuals.
If you need a medical ahead of starting a new job, you can contact us today to book in an appointment. Our expert medical team will get you checked out, and ensure you’re fit to do the job you’ve been hired for.
What Is Included In A Pre-Employment Medical?
Your medical may vary depending on your job's specific requirements, or even due to specific regulations surrounding types of work.
For example, for those working in mines, addition lung-focused tests and processes may be required in addition to a typical medical.
In general, your pre-employment medical in Mackay will include the following:
- Eye checks
- Blood pressure
- Weight and height measurements
- Urine test
- Medical history questionnaire
- A full doctor review of: Vision, Hearing, Breathing, Abdomen, Skin, Nervous system, Musculoskeletal system & Circulation
As we mentioned above, your pre-employment medical's exact content may vary depending on the requirements of your employer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a pre-employment medical?
- You may need a pre-employment medical if your place of employment specifically requires one before you can start work. This requirement may be due to internal regulations or government requirements, such as in the case of miners.
How soon before I start work can I get my pre-employment medical?
- We always recommend you complete your medical as soon as possible, to allow time for results to come back on any testing we need to do. We’d recommend you book your medical in as soon as you can once you’ve accepted a job offer.
Do I need a doctor to perform my pre-employment medical?
- A trained medical professional is required to carry out the full pre-employment medical needed. You’ll need to book with one of our expert team if you want to complete your medical as soon as possible
Can I opt-out of specific tests?
- If your employer requires full testing and you opt-out of specific tests, you’ll need to discuss this directly with them. While we cannot make you carry out any testing you don’t want to do; it’s worth noting that this may be required to start working with your employer.
Will there be any further testing required after my medical?
- If your medical is all clear, no further testing should be required.
