    Hey everyone,

    I was asked to take a pre-employment medical test before I start my job. Can anyone enlighten me as to what is normally covered in this type of test?
    Thanks! ;)

    B,

    I had one last week. Id to fill out an extensive form with quesitons about health history, exercise level, how much you drink/smoke etc etc etc.

    Took my height & weight, then blood test, urine test, hearing test, ecg, sight test & lung capacity.

    Thanks a lot! Does it mean I do not need to take another drug screening test? Can I have breakfast before that medical test?

    If you've already done a drug screening you mightnt have a urine test then, maybe, dont quote me on that! :)

    Id have a breakfast as normal ya. She asked me before the bloods & i had had a couple of sausages out of a petrol station(classy i know), so she said if the cholesterol comes back i bit high that'll probably be the reason. So maybe a clean breakfast rather than a full irish or whatever & you'll be grand.
