Does a pre-employment physical test for STDs?

Pre-employment physical tests typically do not test for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). These tests usually focus on general health and fitness in relation to the requirements of the specific job being applied for. If an employer requires STD testing as a condition of employment, they must inform the applicant in advance and obtain explicit consent before proceeding. STD testing for employment purposes raises sensitive privacy and anti-discrimination considerations, so it is not a common practice in most industries.
