A bill for an act relating to physical examinations of personnel working in licensed or registered child care facilities.

This bill removes a requirement that personnel working in Iowa's licensed or registered child care facilities must undergo pre-employment physical examinations. Currently, staff must get exams from a licensed doctor within six months before starting work (including communicable disease tests) and every three years after hire. The bill eliminates this mandate entirely, meaning facilities will no longer need to verify these health screenings for new or existing employees. This change directly affects child care workers and the facilities employing them, removing a specific health verification process from state law.
