Fit-for-duty exam redaction is the removal of health details from a result governed by ADA §12112(d). The statute limits medical tests and inquiries of workers. anonym.plus marks each finding on your device, so a manager learns the outcome while the clinical detail stays private.
When this applies
A manager needs the cleared-or-not outcome, not the full report. You trim the diagnoses and provider data the ADA keeps confidential before you pass it on.
How anonym.plus handles it
- Open the result in anonym.plus on your device.
- Local OCR reads a scanned clinic page.
- The tool flags conditions, providers, and contacts.
- Keep the plain cleared or restricted outcome line.
- Swap or black out the confirmed items.
- Save the clean copy locally.
What you need to provide
- The exam result (PDF, DOCX, or scan).
- An operator (Replace keeps the outcome readable).
- Optional allow-list for the outcome line.

Limitations & cautions
A restriction can imply a condition even with the diagnosis removed. The tool flags listed fields, yet context may still hint at health status. Share only what the job truly needs.
Frequently asked questions
What may a manager see from this assessment?
Usually the outcome and any work restriction, not the diagnosis. ADA §12112(d) keeps the clinical detail confidential, which the tool flags.
Can it keep just the cleared line?
Yes. Allow-list the outcome line so it stays while diagnoses and provider data are removed.
Is the result uploaded?
No. The app is fully offline, so it stays on your device.
