What a Pre-Employment Medical Test in Perth Covers

Not every worker needs every test. The assessment scope is determined by the physical demands of the role – classified on a scale from very low to high – and by your employer’s specific requirements. A light administrative role and a Pilbara mine site role are assessed very differently.

How demand classification works in practice:

For low and medium demand roles, the standard medical covers the core physical systems:

Musculoskeletal function
Cardiovascular baseline
Vision
General health markers

The focus is on identifying pre-existing conditions that could be affected by the role or pose a safety risk.

High-demand roles (most mining, construction and heavy industry positions) need a more extensive assessment:

Functional Capacity Assessments evaluate whether a worker can safely perform specific physical tasks.
Audiometry and spirometry are commonly added where noise or dust exposure is part of the job.
Drug and alcohol screening is standard for most site-access requirements across WA.

What you receive at the end:

Every assessment gives you one of three outcomes: fit for role, unfit, or fit with conditions. Conditional results include specific guidance, such as a restriction, a follow-up requirement or a recommendation for further review. Workers and employers both get a result they can act on straight away, rather than raw data they have to interpret.

If you’re unsure which level of assessment applies to a role, contact our Belmont team before booking.

Industries We Assess in Perth

Perth is the staging point for much of Western Australia’s resources and energy workforce. Most of the pre-employment medicals we conduct in Perth reflect that.

Mining and resources

We conduct pre-employment medicals for FIFO and DIDO workers heading to operations across the Pilbara, Goldfields–Esperance, Kimberley, and Mid West regions. This covers site-standard mine medicals, health surveillance for silica and dust-exposed roles, and fitness-for-duty assessments.

Oil and gas

We provide fitness-to-work assessments for offshore and onshore roles, including LNG facilities, platform support and processing site personnel.

Construction and civil works

Pre-employment assessments for workers entering major infrastructure and civil projects across the Perth metro area and regional WA, including rail, utilities, and commercial construction.

Transport and logistics

Commercial drivers medicals for heavy vehicle licence holders under the Assessing Fitness to Drive standard, plus pre-employment screening for depot and logistics roles.

Rail

Cat 1, Cat 2, and Cat 3 rail medicals for workers entering the WA rail network.

Aviation and defence

Aviation medicals and fitness assessments for airport, maintenance, and defence-adjacent roles.

For Employers: Coordinating Pre-Employment Medicals Across Your Workforce

Managing pre-employment medicals in Perth across multiple candidates, often against tight mobilisation deadlines, is a recurring pressure point for HR, safety, and mobilisation teams in the resources and construction sectors.

What we offer employers:

Same-day appointments – available Monday to Friday, so placements aren’t held up by booking delays
12-hour report turnaround – results back fast so you can confirm the placement without waiting
Flexible group bookings – multiple candidates coordinated through a single point of contact
Consistent national standards – the same assessment protocols at all Safework Health clinics, so results are comparable whether workers book in Perth, Brisbane, or Darwin
On-site assessments – available for larger groups or depot locations where getting workers to clinic isn’t practical

For high-volume labour hire companies, mining contractors and project-based employers, we can set up direct billing and a streamlined booking process. Contact our team to discuss account setup.

For Individual Workers: What to Expect

If you’ve been asked to complete a pre-employment medical in Perth before starting a new role, here’s what the appointment involves at our Belmont clinic.

Before your appointment

Bring photo ID and any relevant medical history or specialist correspondence. If your employer has a specific medical form, bring a copy – or ask them to send it through to us ahead of time. Book online or call 1300 795 227; same-day appointments are typically available.

On the day

Most standard assessments take 30–60 minutes depending on the components required. Drug and alcohol testing is done on-site. Our assessors will walk you through each step and are available to answer questions as you go.

After your appointment

Results are returned to your employer within 12 hours in most cases. You’ll receive a clear recommendation: fit, unfit or conditional. If follow-up or further investigation is required, we’ll explain what’s needed before you leave.

Keep your workplace safe from drugs and alcohol.;
