Dear list
There was a recent query on pre emp screening in the Netherlands - The Medical Examinations Act which came into force in the Netherlands in 1998 and states that pre emp screening with the purpose of "employee selection" is forbidden, however, particular jobs that require specific advise relating to health, risk etc. should be referred to expert OH adviser / physician to consider the best method of assessing this.
The act it self will be much more useful of course.

I was once told that in The Netherlands pre-employment screening is not permitted. I have never checked on this but you might wish to.
