Question

Francisco Holt had applied for the position of an emergency direct care worker at the City Medical Center. In the last round of the selection process, he had to take part in a testing procedure that simulated an emergency situation. He had to run a half-mile on the treadmill, followed by a step test, a posture test, a squat test, and a weight-lifting test. His performance was timed and his heart rate was monitored throughout the tests. Which test is exemplified in this case?

Answer 1

The answer is: Physical ability test

Step-by-step explanation:

Physical ability tests are designed to evaluate the capacity of a candidate for a physically demanding job. The candidates are required to perform work related physical tasks.

They include a series of tasks done in a controlled environment that try to replicate the normal physical demands of the job as closely as possible.

Physical ability tests are used by the police, fire departments, the army, professional sports teams, etc.
