Wow, is this true? If it’s true, then all I can say is that Nigeria companies are ignorant. Those 2 diseases aren’t the most expensive diseases to treat so I don’t know why those companies are not offering them jobs based on those 2 illness. What about heart disease, lupus, multiple sclerosis, diabetes, and other Auto immune diseases?? Do you know that these are illnesses that causes medication for a long time? The only reason a company should discontinue a job offer based on illness it’s if job has pathway to blood born injuries or communicable diseases. I.e medical field, Emt, nurses

truth is, it is not about treatment, it's about the possibility of you falling sick now and then or not being able to do some jobs. They only use HMO as cover. What amount will be too much for oil companies as HMO for example when they can pay as high 30K daily as field allowances.

Passing the test doesn't mean you can never be infected. The company need to repeat the test for their staff every now and then.

Nigerians are ignorant. Do you know that if you are HIV positive and you go for a pre-employment medical test and they discover it and refuse to employ you on that ground alone, you can actually sue that company and they will pay you damages. And when I mean damages I mean in MILLIONS! This is because a law which covers discrimination against PLWHA (Persons Living With HIV/AIDS) has been enacted and it is a crime to discriminate against them.

Many people don't know this and that is why these companies gave a field day.

You are still hanging on to that parochial thinking after being told already that except u are working with blood, those diseases are not enough reasons to refuse someone a jobhuh I really need to speak with that personnel who has told u either patients fall ill more than others or are not as strong as 'whole' patients.

you can't be a "patient" and at the same time report as an employee. So what are the reasons? What are the after math of taking the drugs attached to those diseases? Do you feel dizzy?

JARUSHUB:
All good companies require prospective employees to take mandatory medical test before being offered employment.

The are three reasons for this:

To determine whether the employee is medically fit for work, not an employee that will fall sick at the slightest work rigour.
To be sure the employee will not spend too much time at the hospital than at work, so they will not employ someone that will call in absent almost every week due to one health issue or the other.
To determine whether the employee does not pose a health threat to other employees, e.g. through diseases that can be spread by sharing toilet with other employees.
To have the health records of the employee
For big companies with health insurance, the health insurance company (HMO) that will insure the employees require their health records which will determine their insurance value.

Here are the top diseases that may make a company drop a prospective employee after pre-employment medical test.



1. HIV: Although most companies say they are equal opportunity employers, as much as 95% of those that do pre-employment medicals will not employ a candidate with HIV. HIV means that the cost of insuring that employee with HMO will be high, the employee might have high rate of absenteeism, etc. Most companies save themselves these by rejecting such candidate.



2. HEPATITIS B & C: As much as 60% of companies will not employ prospective employee found to have hepatitis during medicals. The major reason is, cost of insuring such employee by HMO will be high. Some companies however do go ahead to employ the candidate unconditionally. Some employ the candidate but put condition that the health insurance benefit available to the employee will not cover hepatitis. In other words, they will not pay for hospital expenses relating to management of the employee’s hepatitis.



The company mostly will not state the reason why they did not employ you after medicals. They may tell you you failed medicals, without being specific about the cause.



However, at very senior management level, especially when you are coming with top skills and experience, most companies will still employ you despite discovering this during medicals.

Big companies repeat the tests for all employees every 2-3 years, but they wont sack based on post-employment new infection.
