Pre-employment Checkup Urgent!!!

srinivas2872
Hi Colleagues,
One of my friend has found Hepatitis B virus carrier through pre-employment health checkup who was selected for an MNC company.
According to MNC company policy they have rejected the candidature.
If a person carrying HBV can be eligible or any law that will guide this.
Is HbsAg compulsory test for all MNCs
What are the regular tests a company requires as pre-employment checkup.
I request more suggestions on this from all our HR community.

Dear friend,
the medical test was done before your friend joined....
so their is no way the MNC can be forced to accept the candidate as he is yet to join...
had this test been done after he is made a permanent employee then he would have legal recourse but in this case as he was rejected before he joined, there is very little hope.
all the best,

One of our employee has found HIV positive through pre-employment health checkup who was selected . As per the terms of offer letter his appointment is subject to he being found medically fit for the appointment.
Can we reject the candidate or are there any government implications.What is the best justification.

Hi Mr. Malik ji,
Greetings
I have a query in this regard. I am from a MNC. Our recruitment at the entry level positions is enormous. the reports generation gets often delayed forcing us to take the candidate in before we get the reports.
By the time the report is received, the employee might have finished just 1 to 7 days of service with us. In case if we receive a negative report, is it legal to ask the employee to leave?

usually many times co.'s / countries specify the test required to be done before a candidate can be taken on role. if a particular report is very important for functioning of the job then the co can righfully reject the application. as far as HIV is concerned, i feel the person has legal right to work. It all depends on the nature of the job & the respective countries law.
