A standard medical generally includes BMI, blood pressure, urine drugs screen test, hearing and vision (colour as well).

Are there specific benchmarks that are required (BMI/Blood Pressure) for a dispatchers role? If you are not in a "safety critical" role, i.e Gateline/Customer Service does the medical requirement reduce?
I have a medical scheduled very soon with a TOC that could involve both of the above roles

If you are non safety critical then yes it will be a different medical.

If you’re non-safety critical you’ll basically have a drug (possibly alcohol) screening and a general once over (they often won’t typically even test for alcohol).
