Under the Working Time Regulations, all night workers are to be offered an initial and an annual health assessment. A night worker is classified as an individual who regularly works for more than three hours during the period 11 p.m. to 6 a.m. The assessment is voluntary and additional to any other health assessment undertaken. Completed questionnaires, are designed to identify possible areas of special need in relation to night work.
Our fee includes a certificate advising you are either suitable to continue night work, or you are unfit to continue with night work (temporary or permanent).

Our Night Worker Medical Assessment service plays a crucial role in helping you comply with these regulations by assessing the health and fitness of your night workers and ensuring they are fit for their specific duties. By conducting these assessments, you demonstrate your commitment to the well-being of your night shift employees and fulfil your legal obligations as an employer.

And individualised to employer requirement
We will advise what to bring according to the type of assessment chosen.
The Working Time Regulations 1998 mandate that employers must offer night workers a free health assessment before they start night work, upon request or regularly thereafter. While not legally required, workers over 50 have grounds for more frequent assessments. Assessments should consider conditions, intensity of night schedule, worker well-being, and condition management. These regulations also govern the working hours of night workers, setting limits on weekly hours and requiring regular health assessments. Employers must offer assessments to night workers with health issues exacerbated by night work, regardless of request.
