Hi,
I wanted to get a general reaction from HR specialists on the pre employment medical.Iam currently applying for different jobs out there,mining and offshore work(20 years experience)I have had spinal surgery over 2 years ago to corect a disc herniation,iam not affected by the surgery,iam very fit,healthy,very active in sports etc etc....will this pre existing surgery have any affect on my chance of employment?Even without it restricting me in my work duties,but just because i have had this surgery done before will that be an automatic fail from the HR point of view?(my background is labour intensive work)
thanks for youre any input,
Rgds
