When Is an Occupational Health and Safety Medical Needed?
Occupational Health and Safety Medicals are crucial at various stages of employment. When a new employee is hired, an initial health assessment can identify any pre-existing conditions that might be exacerbated by their job role.
For workers returning from long-term leave, a medical evaluation ensures they are fit to resume their duties safely. These assessments are further necessitated by changes in job duties that introduce new health risks, such as exposure to hazardous substances or manual handling tasks requiring fit-for-work tests.
We also conduct medicals when specific health risks, like respiratory hazards or noise exposure, are identified in the workplace. Regular medicals not only prevent workplace injuries but also ensure compliance with regulations like the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.
