Legal Question
Pre-employment medical exam
I recently received a conditional offer of employment from a local Sheriff Office for a 911 Dispatcher position. I am scheduled to complete a medical examination as one of the conditions for employment. Although, I do not know what the medical exam entails.
My concern is that I had a PDA (Patent Ductus Arteriosus) Transection Surgery performed in 1988. I was 14 years old at the time, and I am now 32. I have never had any heart or heart related problems after the surgery.
Am I obligated to disclose this information/surgery during my medical exam?
Presently, I do not have any existing health issues.
Thank you for your time.
