The 1998 Working Times Directive requires employers to arrange regular medical assessments for all nightworkers.   This can be initiated as  part of a pre-employment medical.

 

 

A new member of staff is a long term investment.  It can be well worth establishing any health or fitness issues in advance of problems arising.

The simplest option, appropriate for many junior or clerical roles, uses pre-employment questionnaires completed by each prospective employee.  After review by a doctor, we will return a summary report.  In a very few cases, this might lead to a need for a physical examination.

 

A more thorough approach is to arrange a pre-employment medical examination.  Again, this results in a clear summary as to the candidate's suitability and any potential work-related medical problems.

 

Assessments are related to job roles - for example audiometry tests to meet legal requirements for records for those working in noisy environments; fitness for lifting or key positions of responsibility and to meet the requirements of the Disability Discrimination Act.

 

 

Companies occasionally need an assessment by an independent doctor to establish what action to take for long term sickness, workplace accidents or early retirement.

 

EOMC can arrange an assessment by an independent Occupational Health specialist.  This results in an unbiased report, including recommendations, as to whether the examinee is fit to work, and if not, how long their inability to do so is likely to last.

Abuse of drugs and alcohol in the workplace is a growing and worrying trend and could lead to   disastrous consequences.

Screening for drugs and/or alcohol abuse, on a totally confidential basis, can be part of a pre-employment examination, a regular health screen or as irregular spot checks (but always with the employee's consent).
