Construction & Infrastructure

Site-ready assessments before the worker reaches the gate.

Short mobilisation windows, subcontractor churn, hard physical work at height and in dust. Medrisk assesses candidates against the documented demands of the role and returns a doctor-determined outcome in hours, before mobilisation, not after.

What should a construction pre-employment medical cover?

The inherent requirements of site work: sustained manual handling, work at height, plant and vehicle interfaces, long hours and travel, heat and cold exposure, and the medications and conditions that matter in a safety-critical environment. A role-mapped assessment documents these demands for the specific role, and an occupational health doctor determines each candidate’s outcome against them, returned as a structured one-page report with a complete audit trail.

A documented workforce, one hire at a time

Construction has its own chapter of the WHS regulations and its own codes of practice, and principal contractors carry duties for the workplace as a whole. The primary duty also extends to any person put at risk by the work, including the public on the other side of the hoarding. The codes describe documented risk management, and a role-mapped assessment adds per-worker evidence at the point the workforce is assembled. Where crews arrive through labour hire, the provider and the host each hold the full primary duty at the same time, unpacked on the labour hire and recruitment page.

The modules that do the work

Assessments are assembled from role-specific modules: functional capacity, environmental exposures, fatigue, shift work, general medical, medications and psychological health where the role demands it. Integrated drug and alcohol screening runs through Medrisk’s pathology network in the same flow, and flagged functional risk can trigger an integrated physio-led functional capacity assessment in two clicks.

Hours matter when the window is short

Mobilisation windows do not leave room for clinic appointments and week-long waits. Medrisk assessments can be sent in bulk, completed on the candidate’s phone in under 30 minutes wherever they are, metro, regional or remote, and determined by an occupational health doctor within hours. National coverage across Australia and New Zealand, at a fraction of in-clinic cost.
