When Is Occupational Health Services Needed?

Our occupational health services are essential whenever workplace health risks are present, whether due to hazardous substances, heavy machinery, or ergonomic challenges. Changes in job roles or the introduction of new processes, such as implementing new chemical handling procedures, can trigger the need for thorough health assessments to comply with regulations like the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH).

When employees report health concerns such as musculoskeletal issues or there is a noticeable increase in sickness absence rates, our proactive management referrals and health surveillance programmes become crucial. We use audiometric testing and respiratory assessments to identify potential health issues before they escalate.

Pre-employment health assessments are also necessary to ensure new recruits can safely perform their jobs, particularly in physically demanding roles. Regular reviews of workplace health and safety policies further ensure the ongoing well-being of all employees.
