Here is an excellent article about the “potential health risks” that your applicants may be bringing with them when they work with your agency. Co morbidity is a significant reason that medical costs are increasing in the workers compensation arena. For example, the US population is generally less healthy in terms of obesity than it was 40 years ago. As a result, the recovery time and costs after a workers compensation accident occurs, can be longer and more expensive to you as an employer.
