COMMERCIAL DRIVER MEDICALS BY JOBFIT
Commercial Driver medicals are required to assess a person’s fitness to drive a commercial vehicle safely.
While many factors contribute to safety on the road, driver health and fitness to drive is an important consideration. Above all, drivers must meet certain medical standards to ensure their health status does not unduly increase their crash risk.
MEDICAL ASSESSMENT
Jobfit can provide medical assessments for commercial drivers. These vehicles include:
- Light rigid (LR)
- Medium rigid (MR)
- Heavy rigid (HR)
- Heavy combination (HC)
- Multiple combination (MC)
Jobfit also provides medicals for Passenger Vehicle Drivers (Uber, Rideshare etc). Please click here to book and pay online for Passenger Vehicle Driver Medicals.
RESPONSIBILITIES AS A COMMERCIAL DRIVER
Like all drivers, you have a legal responsibility not to drive if you are not fit to do so. This is an obligation under road safety law, and for commercial drivers it is an obligation under Work Health and Safety law.
You also have an obligation to report to the Driver Licensing Authority any health condition that may affect your ability to drive safely. We will advise you if you have any conditions that might impact on your ability to drive, and in some cases a referral will be provided for you to discuss with your General Practitioner. In the vast majority of cases, early identification and management of health conditions will mean that you will retain your driver licence, potentially on a Conditional Licence, which may require more frequent health reviews.
PRICING
The price of Commercial Driver Medicals conducted at a Jobfit centre is $319 (incl GST). In addition, a credit card surcharge is payable.
A pre-placement may include a drug screen, depending on the operator’s requirements. This medical can include an Instant Drug & Alcohol test if requested at an additional cost.
You must pay for the appointment at the time you request an appointment. Once we have received your payment, your appointment will be confirmed via SMS.
