For employers

Physicals, screenings, and testing. Handled locally, on your schedule.

DOT physicals, drug testing, pre-employment screening, fit-for-duty and return-to-work exams at all our clinics. OSHA compliant. Open to any business, no membership required. Member employees get physicals, exams, and screenings included.

What we do

DOT physicals

Keep your drivers licensed and on the road with an annual DOT physical. Our examiners are certified and we handle the paperwork.

Drug testing

Done in house, with results in three to five days. For new hires, return to work, random screenings you assign, or after an accident on the job. This is the one occupational health service that is billed separately for member employees.

Pre-employment screenings

Confirm a new hire is a fit for the role before day one. Comprehensive screening identifies health issues that could affect job performance or safety.

Fit-for-duty exams

Verify that an employee can perform their duties safely and effectively. Regular fit-for-duty exams help reduce the risk of workplace injury.

Return-to-work screening

A surgeon often clears someone to return without knowing the physical demands of the job they are returning to. We screen against the tasks the job description actually requires, so that does not happen.

Health screenings

Routine screening catches problems early. Early detection helps reduce absenteeism and keep people working.

If your employees are DPCA members, most of this is already included.

Pre-employment screenings, fit-for-duty exams, return-to-work screening, health screenings, and DOT physicals are included for employees on a DPCA membership. No separate invoice, no per-exam charge.

Drug testing is the exception and is billed separately.

Not members? Every service is available to any business, priced per service.
