Title 45, Chapter 2, Section 43
( 45-2-43)
If a physical examination is required, the examining medical
practitioner shall make a report certifying that the prospective
employee has been examined and certified as not having any condition
that would impair the fulfillment of the prescribed duties of the
employment. However, if a condition exists which would impair the
fulfillment of the prescribed duties, the medical practitioner shall
identify such condition, the employing agency shall provide
reasonable accommodation to the extent required by the Americans
with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. Sec. 12101 et seq., and the medical
practitioner shall certify that the prospective employee, with the
accommodation, meets the standards of medical and physical fitness
for the position. Additional confidential medical information
should be given only with the consent of the applicant. The
examining medical practitioner shall complete the necessary forms
and findings in accordance with the rules of the State Personnel
Board. All such medical information shall be retained in a
separate, confidential file and not as a part of the personnel file. |
