Specialist Medical Services

OGUK / OEUK medicals

Also known as offshore medicals or oil and gas UK medicals, these are comprehensive health assessments required for individuals working in the offshore oil and gas industry. These medical examinations ensure that workers are fit to perform their duties in the demanding offshore environment.

Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS) Assessments

These are evaluations conducted to identify and manage the risk of vibration-related injuries in workers exposed to hand-arm vibration (HAV) in their daily tasks, such as operating power tools or machinery. These assessments typically involve a combination of medical questionnaires and examinations to gauge the extent of vibration exposure and assess any symptoms or signs of HAVS. Our specialists can provide HAVS assessments from Tier 1 to Tier 4.

Ionising Radiation Medicals

Essential health assessments conducted for individuals who are regularly exposed to ionising radiation in their workplaces, such as radiographers, nuclear medicine technologists, and radiation therapists, among others. These medical examinations aim to monitor and manage the potential health risks associated with radiation exposure, including the increased risk of cancer and other radiation-induced diseases.

Pre-employment Medicals / Annual Medicals

Conducting new starter medicals is a wise choice for any company. These assessments promote a safe and healthy work environment, reduce absenteeism, and demonstrate a commitment to employee well-being, enhancing corporate culture.
