The Legal Risk Score of a Pre Employment Medical Form Template is Low
Our legal team have marked this document as low risk considering:
- There is a risk that the information disclosed by an applicant could be used to assess their suitability for employment, which may inadvertently influence employment decisions if not handled with strict adherence to nondiscrimination laws.
- The document requires applicants to disclose any pre-existing conditions that could impact their ability to perform the job, which might deter applicants with disabilities or health issues from applying due to concerns about bias or privacy.
- Information from the health declaration can be shared with legal advisers, which raises the possibility of personal health information being exposed beyond the immediate hiring process.
Overall, this document carries moderate risk primarily due to the sensitive nature of the health information collected and the potential for misuse or unauthorised disclosure. Users familiar with employment and privacy laws will better navigate these risks, ensuring that they maintain compliance and handle sensitive information appropriately.
