WorkSTEPS

The WorkSTEPS Program was developed in response to industry's need for reliable, medically/legally defensible employment testing programs which could effectively reduce work place injury incidence and work place injury costs. The Program, which is based upon objective scientific data and collection, conforms fully to EEOC Guidelines for application of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
