Overview

Why Medical Screening?

Many Australian industries require pre-employment medical assessments to ensure candidates are physically capable of performing the role safely. Mining, construction, transport, and healthcare commonly require fitness-for-duty assessments, while drug and alcohol testing is standard across safety-critical industries.

Refchecks partners with accredited medical providers across Australia to coordinate bookings, track appointments, and deliver results digitally. Select the assessment type, choose a clinic near the candidate, and the system handles scheduling, candidate notifications, and result delivery.

Results are returned to your dashboard as soon as the clinic processes them — typically within 24–48 hours for standard drug screens and fitness assessments. All results are stored securely with appropriate access controls, meeting workplace health and safety record-keeping requirements.
