WorkSteps

WorkSteps is an employment testing program that allows employers to match the physical demand levels of a specific job to the physical capabilities of the employee. This reduces the incidence of injury and decreases employee turnover. Services provided through the WorkSteps program include post offer and pre-employment testing. Components of the testing program include:

  • Musculoskeletal evaluation including assessments of range of motion, strength, posture and joint integrity
  • Cardiovascular status, including recovery condition, risk profile, blood pressure and heart rate
  • Static (isometric) and Dynamic (isotonic) strength evaluation of the back and extremities, with analysis for deficits and/or abnormalities and with resultant comparative analysis to a database containing information from thousands of employees tested
  • Risk profile for "over-use syndrome", such as carpal tunnel syndrome
  • Job specific or job simulation components (essential functions) includes instruction in proper body mechanics and lifting techniques
