Initial discussion to understand your organisation, priorities and any known issues you want the assessment to explore.
Review of relevant documents (for example, risk assessments, policies, absence data, site information) and structured conversations with key people
Clarity translates the findings into a practical set of recommendations on which occupational health services you need, for which roles, and at what frequency or level.
You receive a concise report summarising the key risks and proposed occupational health package, with rationale, priorities and suggested phasing where helpful.
A needs assessment helps you move from reactive, piecemeal occupational health to a planned, defensible approach.
It can help you to:
Understand the specific health and safety risks in different roles and locations, including exposure to noise, dust, chemicals, vibration, shift work and psychosocial risks.
Decide which health surveillance, statutory medicals and other assessments are required, and for which staff groups.
Identify where you may be over‑ or under‑providing services, so you can redirect spend where it will have more impact.
Build a joined‑up plan linking health surveillance, management referrals, wellbeing initiatives, training and vaccinations into a coherent pathway.
For many organisations, it also provides a useful baseline against which future health, absence or wellbeing trends can be tracked.
Clarity’s needs assessment is tailored to your organisation but typically considers four main areas.
People and structure Headcount, roles, locations, shift patterns and workforce demographics, to understand where different risks and needs sit.
Work environment and hazards Review of existing risk assessments and information on physical, chemical, biological, ergonomic and psychosocial risks across your activities.
Current health and absence picture High‑level review of absence data, incident trends and any existing health programmes to spot gaps and duplication.
Existing policies and processes Overview of your current approach to occupational health, wellbeing and management of health issues, including what works well and where managers feel exposed.
This is usually done through a mix of document review and discussion with key stakeholders such as HR, health and safety, operations and, where appropriate, employee representatives.
Employers choose Clarity when they want clarity (and value) from their occupational health spend.
Real‑world, role‑specific focus Recommendations are grounded in your roles, hazards and operations – not generic lists of services – so you can justify why each element is in place.
Joined‑up with delivery Because Clarity also delivers the services, the proposed package is realistic to implement and manage, not just theoretical.
Straightforward, plain‑English output Reports and discussions are jargon‑free and designed so HR, health and safety and managers can quickly see what needs to happen next.
High accountability Clarity stays close to your organisation, challenges constructively where needed and takes responsibility for helping you turn the assessment into action.
If you want to be confident that your occupational health provision is targeted, compliant and genuinely matched to your risks, a Clarity needs assessment is the best place to start.
