Kimberley Occupational Health uses state-of-the-art equipment when providing the following.
It is a statutory requirement under AS/NZS 1269.4:2005 for workers who use personal hearing protectors to undergo an Audiometry Assessment before they commence their role, and to continue to do so every two years. Our assessments will provide a baseline hearing test to limit liability for future hearing loss claims, as well as monitor the impact of long-term noise exposure.
A Pre-Employment medical or a Fit-for-purpose medical provides a baseline health assessment for a worker before they enter a role with an employer. The assessment assists with risk management and identifies whether a worker is medically suitable for the role in which they are applying.
Screening for the presence of Alcohol and Other Drugs (AOD) is becoming increasingly important in the workplace as the impact of improper alcohol and other recreational drug use can present a serious risk to health, safety and workplace productivity. Our drug testing collectors receive nationally recognised training to ensure privacy, end-to-end chain of custody, specimen integrity and reliable test interpretation.
Spirometry is often included in pre-employment medicals as a means of assessing the overall respiratory function and capacity of potential employees. A spirometry test is conducted using a spirometer, a machine that can provide a very accurate assessment of lung function.
