Dear Department of Defence,

Could you please provide a current list of medical conditions that automatically exclude a candidate, at application, for recruitment into the ADF.

Thank you in advance for your consideration.

Good evening

 

I refer to your FOI request 18 January 2022 requesting ‘a current list of
medical conditions that automatically exclude a candidate, at application,
for recruitment into the ADF’.

 

I have sought instruction from the relevant Defence business area and
received advice that no documents exist that match your request.  Defence
do not have a list of medical conditions that automatically exclude a
candidate from recruitment.  Each candidate’s medical condition is
assessed based on criteria such as job role, risks, priority candidates,
and all are assessed and determined accordingly.

 

Thank you for your enquiry and your request is now deemed closed.

 

Regards
