Occupational health for construction

We support principal contractors, subcontractors and wider supply chains working across multiple, constantly changing construction sites. Construction is a high‑risk industry for both safety and health, with major risks including dust, hazardous substances, noise, vibration and physical strain.
Our services typically include safety‑critical and fitness‑for‑work medicals, health surveillance for key exposures, management referrals for musculoskeletal and mental health concerns, and onsite or mobile clinics to reach workers at site. We structure reporting to support both H&S and HR teams, and to fit the way construction projects are managed.

Construction risks we help you manage

Construction work often involves:

  • Exposure to dust, cement, chemicals, asbestos and silica, leading to respiratory and skin risks.

  • Noise and hand‑arm vibration from plant, tools and equipment.

  • Manual handling and awkward postures, contributing to musculoskeletal disorders and back injuries.

  • Dynamic, multi‑employer sites, where roles and risks change as projects progress.

We help you translate these risks into clear occupational health requirements for different trades, roles and projects.

Occupational health services for transport & logistics

Safety‑critical and fitness‑for‑work medicals

Role‑specific medicals for workers in high‑risk tasks such as working at height, plant operation, confined spaces and other safety‑critical roles.

Health surveillance for key exposures

Surveillance for respiratory risks (dust, fumes, chemicals), skin risks (cement and other irritants), noise and vibration, in line with legal requirements and HSE guidance.

Management referrals and case management

Clinical reports for musculoskeletal, fatigue‑related and mental health concerns, supporting decisions about fitness, adjustments, restrictions and return to work.

Onsite and mobile medical units

Clinics and mobile units at depots, hubs and major warehouses to minimise travel time and keep staff close to operations while completing assessments.

Working with contractors, supply chains and projects

Construction projects often involve multiple contractors and changing teams over time.

We can:

  • Set up standardised occupational health requirements and processes across your contractors and supply chain.

  • Align medicals and surveillance programmes with project phases and high‑risk activities.

Practical scheduling for sites and crews

We recognise that site teams work to tight programmes, with limited time for off‑site appointments.

We plan assessments around:

  • Site working hours and key activities (for example, concrete pours, lifts, shutdowns).

  • Project milestones and quieter periods.

  • Different locations and phases, so workers can be seen while on site rather than travelling long distances.
