CATEGORY 3 RAIL MEDICAL BY JOBFIT

The Category 3 Rail Medical is for Around the Track Person Workers. Around the Track Person Workers are also known as non-safety critical workers. Their ill health will not impact directly on the safety of the rail network or the public. As around the track personnel these workers are responsible for their own safety and the safety of fellow workers. A medical assessment will check the ability of a worker to walk in the rail corridor, work under supervision, and identify and move to a safe place.

The Track Safety Health Assessment for ATTP (Category 3) focuses on medical conditions that could impact on a worker’s ability to detect and react quickly to an oncoming train or warnings. The assessment comprises eyesight and hearing tests, and an assessment to ensure safe mobility around the track, as well as a questionnaire to help identify any other serious conditions that could affect safety around the track.

In short, the Category 3 rail medical is the minimum requirement to work within the rail corridor.

All health assessments of rail safety workers in Australia are conducted in line with the National Standard for Health Assessment of Rail Safety Workers.

MEDICAL ASSESSMENT

The medical includes an assessment of:

Hearing (up to 2000 Hz)

A pre-placement and/or change of risk category health assessments may also include a drug screen, depending on the state/territory’s legislation and the rail transport operator’s requirements. This Rail Medical can include an Instant Drug & Alcohol test if requested at an additional cost.

PERIODIC ASSESSMENTS

This medical is valid from the date of the issue until the employee reaches 40 years of age. Periodic health assessments every 5 years thereafter are necessary.

The price of a Category 3 Rail Medical conducted at a Jobfit centre is $237.60 (incl GST). In addition, a credit card surcharge is payable.

Are you available for an appointment tomorrow (not including weekends) if there is availability at your preferred location?

YesNo

Jobfit performs all drug and alcohol testing according to the relevant Australian & New Zealand Standard (urinary drug testing to Australian Standard AS/NZS 4308:2008 and oral fluid drug testing to Australian Standard AS/NZS 4760:2019). In the event that an instant drug test or laboratory drug test is non-negative, it is mandatory under the Australian Standards for the sample to undergo further confirmation testing within a NATA accredited laboratory before a final result is issued. This further confirmation testing will incur an additional cost, and is not included in the cost of the medical. Payment of the additional fee will be required before the medical results can be released.

I acknowledge that in the event of a non-negative drug test result, I will be required to pay an additional fee of $174.90 (incl GST) for mandatory GCMS confirmation testing before the medical result is released.
