Recruiting new team members can be time consuming and costly so when you find the right candidate, we know you’ll want to make sure that they’re medically fit for their role and have the right support in place to perform effectively from day one.
Our pre-placement employee health screening service:
- Provides an efficient and cost-effective way for you to check whether an individual has any health problems that could be adversely affected by the work they’ll be doing, or which may affect their ability to perform the role effectively
- Helps you to remain compliant with the Equality Act 2010
- Allows you to access expert clinical advice on any workplace adjustments required for applicants who declare a medical condition
- Enables you to demonstrate your commitment to employee wellbeing
By equipping you with all the information you need to proactively manage your employees’ health from the moment they join your business, we can help you to minimise the likelihood of future sickness absence and in turn, reduce any associated costs to your organisation.

What to expect during a screening assessment
- Step 1: Making the Referral: Once you have identified the need to make a referral for an employee to receive an assessment, such as frequent sickness absences, or a long period of time off due to illness, the employee can be referred to one of our OH professionals.
- Step 2: Completing a Questionnaire: Employees can often complete a set of questions to provide more information at this stage, including current health concerns or conditions, their previous medical history and details on what their job demands. This can help guide the assessment.
- Step 3: The Assessment: The OH professional will talk through the results of the questionnaire and potentially ask further questions. The assessment will then move on to a physical exam, this could also potentially include eye tests or blood tests if necessary.
The OH professional will then discuss the results of the assessment with the employee providing any relevant advice. They will then have to request permission to share these results with the employer.
Once shared, the employer will receive a detailed report containing if the employee is fit to work, or if any reasonable adjustments are required.
