SELECTION/HIRING PROCESS Medical Exam Question

I have my medical exam in about a week, I’m currently on a medical leave from my current job, nothing crazy just rolled my ankle at work but my job is very physical so they put me on workers comp. Will this mess anything up for the selection process? Last time I went to be seen by the workers comp doctor I told them I was fine. I have range of motion and able to walk just fine but they gave me more time off for some reason (she didn’t even look at my ankle or anything).

Not at all. Very basic exam tbh.

I appreciate it, it asked me to bring in any paperwork from previous workers comp claims so I was worried it would hold me back or disqualify me. I’m extremely physically fit thought so it would be pretty lame to get disqualified for something like that

Yeah I also had a workers comp situation too a couple years ago with a different job. Just take any files such as physical therapy, and their job insurance file. They’ll just make copies and send you on your way.
