Not a problem. Send out the PEHQ after the offer of employment has been made. Some employers aren't going like it but from an OH perspective all we can do is advise of the adjustments that are required. If the role has particular fitness standards and the applicant does not meet them then all we can do is inform them of that, then it is a management problem. If the medical condition is likely to fall within DDA get the individual to make an application to Access to Work and providing this is done within the first six weeks of employment they fully fund any adjustments needed to support the individual carrying out the role, and the employer would be required to make any other 'reasonable' adjustments.
