Health Surveillance for Regulatory Compliance & Wellbeing

Navigate complex health and safety regulations with confidence. Our HSE-compliant health surveillance programmes protect your employees and your business.

What is Health Surveillance?

We understand that navigating health surveillance can feel overwhelming. That's why, at Workforce Wellbeing, we see it as a partnership in protecting your team. We don't just tick boxes; we implement a strategic approach to identifying and addressing work-related health risks. For your employees exposed to hazards like hand-arm vibration, noise, and respiratory sensitisers, statutory health surveillance is crucial. For those high-risk scenarios involving asbestos, ionising radiations, or lead, you can trust our HSE-appointed doctors to deliver expert assessments with compassion and precision.

Why health surveillance?

The aim of health surveillance is to identify work-related ill-health through systematic and appropriate medical assessments. It also helps in assessing the effectiveness of control measures in the workplace. The HSE has produced more than twenty guidance documents about different health surveillance programmes. Below is also the list of some of the relevant Regulations:

Health Surveillance Regulatory and Compliance

Health surveillance is not just best practice; it's often a legal requirement. Businesses working with hazardous substances, noise, vibration, or in confined spaces are obligated to comply with specific regulations to safeguard employee health. Failure to do so can result in serious legal and financial consequences. Ensure your business meets all necessary health surveillance standards with our expert support.

Which businesses need to comply?

How our occupational health professionals can help?

We provide HSE appointed doctor services. It is important to know that most workers do not need any formal health surveillance. We would be able help you carry out a suitable risk assessment and establish whether or not you need to set up any health surveillance. If statutory health surveillance is required, we assist you in setting up an appropriate health surveillance programme in accordance with the relevant health and safety legislation and the HSE requirements.
We inform you of the outcome of the health surveillance assessment and advise if you need to take any actions ( eg restricted duties). We address the worker’s health issues (eg further testing and referrals).
