In many cases it may be necessary to screen candidates to ensure that they are fit and able to carry out tasks prior to the commencement of employment. As well as helping to avoid errors in matching candidates to positions beyond their physical capabilities, this approach can also ensure that you can demonstrate an awareness of, and compliance with, a variety of legislation. For example:

• Health & Safety at Work Act
• Working Time Directives
• Disability Discrimination Act

Caritas can help by introducing a system of questionnaires and/or medical assessments to ensure that you comply with all the necessary legislation – please contact us for further information.
