When Is Occupational Health Service Needed?

Occupational health services are essential when an employee's health may impact their work, particularly in industries where safety is paramount, such as construction, manufacturing, and healthcare. At Private Occupational Health Services, we provide assessments following workplace accidents to determine injury severity and recommend suitable rehabilitation plans.

We also conduct pre-employment screenings, focusing on physical and mental fitness for roles that require specific capabilities, such as manual handling or prolonged screen work. Periodic health checks are vital for ongoing workplace safety and compliance with health and safety regulations, including the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH).

Services are also crucial when introducing new workplace activities or equipment that may affect employee health, such as exposure to noise or vibration. Contact us for guidance on your organisation's specific needs.
