Occupational health

Corporate and occupational health investments are the best way to create better outcomes for your workforce and business.

reduces time lost to injuries

contribute to increasing productivity.

Executive health assessments

Our executive health assessment (EHA) is a workplace health program for your executives and senior employees. We develop these assessments in collaboration with you to ensure they target the risks associated with high-pressure roles and are specific to your team, including age, gender and demographic environments.

The results of these assessments inform your executive and senior team members about their health status and expand their understanding of their specific health risks. Alongside these results, we work with you and your team members to set goals to improve their lifestyles, wellbeing and workplace performance, incorporating preventative measures and available treatments to reduce the risks outlined in the assessments.

The process

Prior to EHA:

Each team member needs to complete a pre-appraisal health history questionnaire to be completed and returned prior to the assessment appointment.

EHA assessment

Our team will cover a broad range of tests to understand each individual’s overall health and wellness and identify any risk factors or areas of health concern. Each assessment lasts for 90 minutes per person.

Below is a list of the typical tests included in the assessment.
blood pressure
lung function test
visual acuity
body composition (weight, body fat percentage and BMI)
flexibility and back-care assessment
liver function
abdominal strength assessment
smoking and alcohol habit assessment
coronary risk profiling
home test kit for stool blood (possible bowel cancer detection)
