Probation Officers Medical Standards
The Los Angeles County Department of Human Resources is conducting a brief, time-sensitive information-gathering effort regarding pre-employment/post-offer medical screening practices for probation officers and would appreciate your assistance.
If possible, could you please share the following for your agency:
Your current class specification documents for all Probation Officer positions (or equivalent job descriptions), and essential function job analyses, if any.
Whether your probation officers are subject to P.O.S.T. standards or are not covered by P.O.S.T.
A brief description of your pre-employment post-offer occupational health/medical screening process for your probation officers, including:
A copy of the clinical protocol or medical examination guidelines used by your occupational health provider to conduct the post-offer physical examination.
Whether your agency conducts these screenings in-house or you contract for these services.
Given that this is a time-sensitive ask, please feel free to post information here or you can send this information directly to Maggie Martinez, Assistant Director for DHR's Branch III: Employee Health & Benefits at mmartinez@hr.lacounty.gov. Maggie is also available to answer any questions related to this ask; you can easily reach her via email.
Thank you in advance for your help.
