Medicals for shift and night workers

A large proportion of workers are expected to work shifts. Night workers are required to be offered a regular medical examination by their employer.

We provide pre-commencement screening and annual surveillance medicals specific to shift and night workers.

Legislation
The Working Time Regulations 1998 relate to employees working at least 7 hours and at least 3 hours between midnight and 5am.

Examination
Completion of a health questionnaire with a medical consultation before starting night work and annually thereafter.
