Due to differing Health and Safety regulations overseas, employees may have been exposed to different levels of toxicity which may have created exposure above current UK COSHH exposure limits.
A paint company were informed by the HSE that they were exposing workers to harmful substances. Safewell advised them on correct RPE and face fit testing.
We carried out an on-site Health Surveillance to ensure our client complied with Management of Health & Safety at Work Regulations 1999 and Regulation 11 of the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 for exposure to lead and nickel.
A construction contractor from Wiltshire asked Safewell to help with a risk assessment for silica dust exposure to its workers as exposure to silica dust whilst drilling into concrete was not listed as one of their safety controls.
Our occupational health team was asked to provide a complete service to include on-site health surveillance medicals and occupational health assessments, both at the site and the provider’s site.
If you don’t require a full clinic, or just have a few individual employees that require an occupational health assessment, safety critical medical or face fit test, we can offer your company individual times and days to suit you, by visiting our office.
We are here to make health and safety accessible and easy for everyone. Please call on 01793 852951 or message us to help you.
