Train Driver Medicals are a mandatory requirement for all professional train drivers.
Medigold Health offer a wide range of safety critical medicals for new-entrant drivers and existing employees, adhering to the EU Licensing directives, Railway Group standards and ORR guidance for best-practice.
Our testing protocols include both Drug & Alcohol screening and resting electrocardiogram (ECG) for employees over the age of 40 (who are clinically at higher risk of heart disease).
