Pre-Employment Health Screenings

Our pre-employment health assessments are categorised into three levels, each tailored to the physical demands of specific roles:
Level 1: Light Roles

These assessments are suited for positions with minimal physical demands, focusing on general health and basic functional capabilities, ensuring candidates are fit for sedentary jobs.

Level 2: Medium Roles

Designed for positions with moderate physical activity, these assessments evaluate an individual’s ability to manage regular physical tasks and adapt to dynamic work environments.

Level 3: Heavy Roles

Intended for physically demanding positions, these comprehensive assessments confirm that candidates are capable of safely performing strenuous tasks required in heavy-duty roles.

Ongoing Health Monitoring Programmes

We offer ongoing health monitoring to maintain employee well-being throughout their tenure. Health monitoring could include, regular check-ups and audiometric assessments, periodic evaluations to ensure ongoing fitness and adaptability, focusing on consistent performance and safety, and overall physical condition.

Baseline Health and Continuous Monitoring

We establish a health baseline at the start of employment, providing a critical reference point for tracking health changes over time. Continuous monitoring is essential for roles with varying physical requirements, helping to ensure long-term health and safety.
