At registration we provide an on-hire Employment Agreement, which includes information regarding Work Health and Safety. The agreement specifies the responsibilities of both the employer and the On-Hire Employee; candidates must read and sign to confirm their understanding and agreement to our policies.
- Safety Questionnaire
During registration applicants complete a pre-employment health questionnaire; this is specific to the proposed job role and duties which will be performed if their application is successful.
All pre-existing conditions or injuries which could be affected by the nature of the proposed employment must be disclosed to determine any matters that may inhibit performance and safety.

Some positions require a pre-employment medical. Pre-employment medicals assess specific job related requirements. Your consultant will advise you if this is required for any role.

Grip strength may also be assessed if required for certain positions.

Some client sites conduct random testing. HOBAN has a zero tolerance policy.
