Grand Lake Bridge Builders is hiring Material Handling Laborers.

Grand Lake Bridge Builders is hiring Material Handling Laborers. The job requires the ability to lift or move objects weighing 100 pounds. Shannon Marshall, who is 5'9'' tall and looks to weigh about 135 pounds applies for the job. Grand Lakes wants to ensure that she is physically capable of doing the job.
Grand Lake can require Shannon to take a preemployment physical examination before wasting time and money on the rest of the application process, such as an interview, drug test, and background check.
 
If Grand Lake makes a conditional job offer to Shannon, it can require her to take a physical examination before wasting time and money on the rest of the application process, such as the drug test and background check.
 
Grand Lake cannot require Shannon to take a preemployment physical examination as a condition of employment, but can require a physical examination after a job offer has been made, provided that all of the non-medical aspects of the application process are completed before the physical examination.
 
Grand Lake can avoid this problem by keeping a set of 100 pound weights in the office and requiring all applicants to lift them at the time of the interview.
