What are the benefits of a New Worker Health Screening?
Employee health screenings are conducted to help reduce the risk of work-related illnesses and injuries. Through bespoke questionnaires and medical tests, health screenings will assess the physical and mental health of an employee to measure their capabilities against the requirements of the role. There are a variety of employee health screenings which involve different tests and measures, but all share the same goal of identifying any health risks among staff to protect their well-being. These include pre-employment health checks, NHS health checks, mini health and lifestyle checks, and health surveillance checks.
Are there any circumstances where you won’t issue a ‘certificate of fitness’?
Employers have a duty of care to protect the health and well-being of their staff. By investing in the health and well-being of their staff, businesses will see increased staff retention and job satisfaction in their teams which has a positive impact on productivity levels. Health screenings can also help to provide peace of mind for staff. A thorough check of an employee’s health can flag any problems they might need to be aware of. Also, it gives them an opportunity to reflect on lifestyle choices and make healthier changes if needed.
