Bad employment decisions can have severe consequences, ranging from the cost of finding replacements to dealing with the public relations or legal consequences associated with employee malfeasance.

It is worth the investment to base hiring and promotion decisions on accurate, objective, and complete information about candidates.

Nearly 30% of all jobs have critical tasks that include a physical component. These jobs span diverse private- and public-sector industries, including utilities, transportation, telecommunications, and public safety. From a hiring perspective, the stakes in this arena are high. Individuals with inadequate physical capabilities experience more workplace injuries and absences, exposing employers to costly workers’ compensation claims. On the other hand, physical standards that do not reflect actual job demands can create artificial employment barriers. For these reasons, an optimal hiring process must include accurately identifying and effectively assessing a diverse array of physical talents.

HumRRO is in a unique position with our diverse set of capabilities and tools needed to help organizations navigate these challenging waters. Our acquisition of Human Performance Systems (HPS) added several internationally known experts in physical ability testing to our staff. Coupled with our decades of expertise conducting rigorous job analyses to support the development of custom assessments for mission-critical jobs, we are now the industry leader within this arena.

Sometimes clients need to simplify their assessment process or create a highly cost-effective assessment. We can accommodate these needs too. We have developed brief, standardized measures of relevant prior experience and work values, as well as pools of structured interview questions targeting specific competencies.
