Welcome to Health Matters

A Flexible, Professional & Customer-Focused Occupational Health Service

Helping support your business safeguard its most valuable resource!

Service Categories

Pre-Placement Health Assessment

A key management tool that forms part of the recruitment process. This service aims to ensure that newly placed employees’ health is sufficient to enable them to safely fulfill the duties of their post, whilst also considering the safety of others.

Health Surveillance

A system of ongoing health checks. These health checks, which are required by law, aim to detect potential work-related ill-health at an early stage, enabling an employer to evaluate health risks and implement and maintain adequate and appropriate control measures.

Management Referrals

A high quality and customer focused service enabling an employer to refer an employee for independent health advice. The service aims to find solutions where an employee’s health may be affecting their fitness to carry out their role, or their role may be adversely affecting their health in some way.

Health & Wellbeing

Unique and bespoke Health & Wellbeing services which provide employers with a range of effective ‘off the shelf’ tools to help improve health and well-being in the workplace and beyond.

“Recently we conducted a Health & Wellbeing Survey, in this survey almost 75% of our colleagues expressed an interest in Mental Health & Stress Awareness Training.

Following this feedback, we have just completed Mental Health Toolbox Talks to over 150 of our colleagues across all shifts.

Thank you, Health Matters for delivering these sessions and equipping us with the skills to support and manage our own mental health.“
