If you are found to be medically unfit during a pre-employment medical examination, it means that you may not be able to perform the essential job functions safely and effectively, or that your health condition poses a risk to yourself or others in the workplace. The specific actions that will be taken will depend on the employer’s policies, the nature of the job, and the severity of the medical condition.
