Introducing Occumetric!
The EIA has partnered with Occumetric to provide physical abilities testing for our members at negotiated rates. Using proprietary equipment and software, Occumetric tests an applicant’s ability to bend, push, pull, and carry loads. Results are used to determine if an applicant can meet the physical demands required for the essential functions of their prospective job. For more information, contact Risk Control.
