Safety and Reliability Psychometric Assessments
Physical pre-employment assessments can only tell you if a potential employee is physically able to perform the job. They cannot tell you if a seemingly fit and healthy person is likely to be unsafe or unreliable on the job.
Konekt offers the following online assessments, developed by Onetest, to all pre-employment assessment customers to identify potentially unsafe and unreliable workers:
- Work Safety Assessment
- Work Reliability Assessment
Work Safety Assessment
Konekt's Safety Assessment is a series of multiple choice questions that identifies individuals who are inherently more likely to take risks, and ignore safety procedures and training.
This assessment is highly recommended for all roles where safety is a priority, particularly those in mining, manufacturing, construction, transportation and heavy industry.
Organisations who screen potential employees using this assessment have achieved the following outcomes:
- 80% reduction in lost time injuries
- 70% lower workers' compensation costs
- 35% reduction in sick days
- Reduced the risk of personal liability for directors and senior managers.
Work Reliability Assessment
Konekt's Reliability Assessment is a separate questionnaire that identifies individuals who are inherently more likely to take "sickies", malinger, steal and engage in other unreliable workplace behaviour.
This assessment is highly recommended for all roles, particularly those where absenteeism, theft and dishonesty are a major concern.
Organisations that screen out potential employees using this assessment have achieved the following outcomes:
- Reduced workplace theft
- Reduced absenteeism (e.g. non genuine sick leave)
- Reduced involuntary turnover
- Facilitated building a culture of honesty and reliability.
Well matched employees are 14 times less likely to be injured on the job.
