Wisconsin Drug Testing Consortium Offers Full Slate of Testing OptionsFunctional Capacity Evaluations, Biometric Wellness Testing Key in Making Sure Applicants Can Physically Handle Their New Duties
"Employers can use functional capacity evaluations and biometric wellness testing as a way to reduce work-related injuries and ensure they are not hiring someone with a pre-existing injury," said WDTC President Mike Bray. "During the evaluation, the potential hire is tested in multiple areas to make sure he or she can safely perform all necessary job functions." WDTC's isokinetic testing matches the applicant's physical capabilities to the job's physical demands with a 98 percent accuracy. So how do the evaluations work? The applicant's baseline measurements are taken by capturing the strength and range of motion for the back, knees and shoulders. "The test is done in 20 minutes and we can have the results faxed or e-mailed to our clients in less than 30 minutes," Bray said. "Functional capacity evaluations can really benefit businesses since they help reduce musculoskeletal injuries, help save on workers' compensation costs, and reduce insurance premiums all within EEOC (Equal Employment Opportunity Commission) compliance standards." Businesses often have multiple employee testing needs and WDTC is a one-stop source to get the answers you need.
