The Medical Questionnaire should be issued to successful candidates where Job Application Form III has been used.
Health questions after a job offer
Employers must be aware that they are prohibited from asking candidates questions about their health before offering them a job.
Employers can ask about a candidate’s health to ensure they can perform an activity intrinsic to the job, or to understand whether any reasonable adjustments are required.

The form includes sections covering:
- personal details;
- Equality Act;
- medical conditions;

Consent, medical reports and UK GDPR health data
