Occupational Health Under COSHH
The Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) regulations are vital to ensuring a safe workplace. Our Occupational Health services under COSHH are designed to help businesses manage and mitigate the risks associated with hazardous substances. We provide comprehensive assessments, monitoring, and health surveillance programs tailored to your specific workplace hazards. Our experts work closely with you to identify potential risks, implement control measures, and ensure compliance with COSHH regulations. This proactive approach not only protects your employees’ health but also enhances productivity and reduces the likelihood of workplace incidents.
Driver and Mechanical Handling Equipment Operator Medicals
Ensuring the safety and well-being of drivers and mechanical handling equipment operators is paramount. Our specialised medical assessments for these roles are designed to evaluate physical and mental fitness, ensuring that operators are capable of performing their duties safely. These medicals include thorough health checks, vision and hearing tests, and assessments of cardiovascular and musculoskeletal health. By identifying any potential health issues early, we help prevent accidents and maintain a safe, efficient work environment.
Vision Screening Services
Clear vision is crucial for workplace safety and efficiency. Our Vision Screening Services provide comprehensive eye examinations to ensure that employees meet the necessary visual standards for their specific roles. Whether it’s for drivers, machine operators, or office staff, our screenings are designed to detect any vision problems that could impact performance or safety. Early detection and correction of vision issues help maintain productivity and reduce the risk of workplace accidents.
Health Screening Services
Our Health Screening Services offer a proactive approach to employee well-being. These services include a range of tests and assessments designed to identify potential health risks before they become serious issues. From blood pressure and cholesterol checks to diabetes screening and lifestyle assessments, our comprehensive health screenings provide valuable insights into your employees’ overall health. By addressing health concerns early, we help improve employee well-being, reduce absenteeism, and enhance workplace productivity.
Hearing Tests (Audiometry)
Exposure to noise in the workplace can lead to hearing loss and other health issues. Our Hearing Tests (Audiometry) services are designed to monitor and protect your employees’ hearing health. We conduct thorough audiometric testing to identify any early signs of hearing loss, ensuring that appropriate measures can be taken to prevent further damage. Regular hearing tests not only comply with health and safety regulations but also demonstrate your commitment to your employees’ long-term well-being.
Lung Function Testing (Spirometry)
Lung health is critical, especially in industries where employees may be exposed to respiratory hazards. Our Lung Function Testing (Spirometry) services provide detailed assessments of respiratory health, helping to identify conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and other lung-related issues. By conducting regular spirometry tests, we ensure early detection and intervention, promoting better respiratory health and reducing the risk of chronic conditions developing.
Pre-placement Medical
Our Pre-placement Medical services are designed to ensure that new hires are fit for their roles. These comprehensive medical examinations assess a candidate’s physical and mental health, ensuring they are capable of meeting the demands of the job. By identifying any potential health concerns before employment begins, we help you make informed hiring decisions, reduce the risk of workplace injuries, and promote a healthier workforce from day one.
Night Workers
Working night shifts can have significant impacts on health and well-being. Our services for Night Workers include specialised health assessments focused on the unique challenges of night work. These assessments cover sleep patterns, mental health, cardiovascular health, and lifestyle factors that may be affected by working irregular hours. By monitoring the health of night workers, we help mitigate the risks associated with shift work, ensuring that your employees remain healthy and productive.
Sickness/Fitness to Work Examinations
Our Sickness/Fitness to Work Examinations provide a thorough evaluation of an employee’s ability to return to work after illness or injury. These assessments determine whether an employee is fit to resume their duties or if adjustments are needed to accommodate their recovery. By ensuring that employees are ready to return to work, we help reduce the risk of further health issues and promote a safe, supportive work environment.
Hand Arm Vibration Screening (HAVS)
Exposure to hand-arm vibration can lead to serious health conditions such as Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS). Our Hand Arm Vibration Screening services are designed to detect early signs of vibration-related health issues. Through detailed assessments and monitoring, we help identify employees at risk and recommend appropriate measures to reduce exposure. By prioritising HAVS screening, you demonstrate a commitment to employee health and safety and ensure compliance with relevant health and safety regulations.
